Congress of Members

Each year, the OAFP considers policy and governance proposals from our membership through our Congress of Delegates. The decisions made by the Congress are memorialized through our Bylaws and our Policy Handbook. If any member knows of an OAFP colleague who has passed away, please contact Louise Merrigan at louisem@oafp.org so that we will be able to include a Condolence Resolution.
