Chapter Administration

This section provides resources for chapter leadership to help you lead your chapter. Two entities support our FAPAC chapters: 

    • The Chapter Committee supports formation of new chapters, development of current chapters, and coordination of administrative information between FAPAC leadership and the chapters. It is also responsible for amending the FAPAC Chapter Guidelines. 
    • Regional Directors represent the chapters in their region on the National Board of Directors.

Here is the committee:

If you would like to help out with the Chapter Committee, please contact us at chapter@fapac.org. 

We are currently revising the FAPAC Chapter Guidelines. The February 2023 version is the latest revision.
