Any business that the LPNC conducts outside of its annual convention is handled in a committee. These committees are listed below with any links to more information about each. If you’re interested in serving on a committee, contact the LPNC Chair or the committee chair.
Adjunct Committees
These committees are established by the LPNC Bylaws.
Bylaws and Convention Rules
The Bylaws and Convention Rules Committee is appointed by the Executive Committee to serve during the months leading up to an annual convention in odd-numbered years during which the LPNC Bylaws are formally considered for revisions.
The 2019 LPNC Bylaws and Convention Rules Committee is active as of June 2018 and is chaired by Donald Reid.
Any LPNC member is welcome to observe and comment on the committee's proceedings. In order to get involved, an LPNC member must join the Bylaws channel in the LPNC Slack workspace.
Whether the committee is active or not, any questions about this committee may be directed to bylaws@lpnc.org.
