The Law Committee consists of myself as a chair along with Kacie Weldy and Chris Woodfill. The Law Committee has formed a new sub-committee, “Internal Procedure Committee” chaired by Debby Lieberman. The sub-committee will handle AADB policy and procedure manual.

The Law Committee will review proposed bylaws changes that were addressed at the AADB national symposium. The members voted and passed to hold the proposed bylaws changes until the next symposium. It has not been determined when the next national symposium wll be held, therefore the Law Committee is making considerations to amend the proposed bylaws changes. You will be notified of future updates.
