ACCA State Divisions

How To Form a State Division of ACCA

Persons interested in forming a state division of ACCA should contact the State Divisions Committee Chair, . Scott Borne The State Divisions Chair can provide details, contacts, and resources to facilitate the division creation. In general, formation of a state division requires:

  1. A minimum of 15 charter members who all belong to ACCA. Exceptions to the minimum number may be considered by the ACCA Executive Council.
  2. Elected officers (president, president-elect, secretary/treasurer required; others as needed).
  3. * By-laws . State division by-laws must be consistent with those of ACA and ACCA and should be presented to the ACCA Executive Council for approval.

Once the state division has been organized and the above activities achieved, the state organizers submit this information to the ACCA Executive Council. The Executive Council will review it and vote on acceptance during an official Council meeting. Once chartered, state divisions are required to submit a roster of members and officers and minutes of leadership meetings to the ACCA Executive Council annually. The ACCA Executive Council will provide a form for this report so that it can be received by June 1 of each year. State divisions may have members who are NOT members of ACCA, but the charter members must be members.
