CAFP Policies
Last Updated: March 13, 2012
The Policy Manual is the digest of CAFP policy. It is a record of all official actions taken by the Board of Directors, Executive Committee, and Congress of Delegates, beginning in 1986. It is organized by major subject areas. Each entry is taken from one of three key source documents: the Minutes of the Board of Directors (BoD), the Minutes of the Executive Committee (EC), and the CAFP Congress of Delegates Transactions (CoD). Each entry is marked by the month and year of its passage.
