The deadline for submitting resolutions for the 2013 ALF has past. You can log on to the AAP website (after signing in, go to “my AAP” and then click on “Leadership Programs” and finally the Annual Leadership Forum) to read the full resolutions, the background information and the on-line discussion. The Following resolutions are being submitted by District II and/or the three New York Chapters.
I want to thank those who have written resolutions and those of you who attend the ALF for your participation. It’s not too soon to think about resolutions for next year. If you have had a resolution that did not pass in previous years, think about resubmitting it. All resolutions for the 2014 ALF were submitted by December 1, 2013. As always, I am available to help craft your resolutions.
