Call for spring 2025 Board of Governors resolutions
The deadline for submitting new resolutions to be heard at the spring 2025 Board of Governors meeting is Sept. 27.
Are you concerned about a practice or clinical issue, or do you have an idea you would like to suggest? If so, you might consider submitting a resolution to your Governor or chapter council.
Initiating a resolution provides ACP members an opportunity to focus attention at the national level on a particular issue or topic that concerns them. Participating in the Board of Governors' resolutions process allows members to shape College policy that impacts the practice of internal medicine. When drafting a resolution, consider how well it fits within ACP's Mission and Goals. In addition, be sure to use the College's Strategic Priorities to guide you when proposing a resolution topic.
Not sure how to begin drafting a resolution? We have a resource to help you get started. The “ACP Board of Governors Resolutions Guide for ACP Members” will familiarize you with the process and walk you through the essential steps. The guide covers basics such as using ACP's resources to research a topic, drafting resolution copy, and navigating submission.
Members must submit resolutions to their Governor and/or chapter council. All resolutions submitted by members must be approved by the chapter council to be submitted to ACP national. The deadline for submitting new resolutions to be heard at the spring 2025 Board of Governors meeting is Sept. 27.
