How are LPCANC board members and officers chosen?
All officers are elected by the membership each year. In addition, 5 board members are elected by the membership and 6 are appointed by the president each year. Officers and the 5 elected board members are elected into office by secret ballot at the Annual Membership Meeting which is always held at the annual conference. Any member of LPCANC can nominate any other member to serve as an officer or as a member of the board. A call for nominations is sent out 90 days before the Annual Membership Meeting, and the names of the nominees is made public at least 30 days before.
