If you are interested in starting your own Chapter Association please contact [email protected]. It takes a lot of commitment and hard work to set up and run a successful Chapter, but you will have the support of the Regional Associations and Chapters Committee as well as the Board and many of the IACA committees. For any new Chapter, we require a minimum of 10 members from at least two different organizations within the same geographic region or country. You will create a Charter for your Chapter and will require a President and a Treasurer. The President should be someone who has been active within the IACA community for at least 12 months. Chapters are governed by our Chapter Bylaws and once a Chapter has been approved by the IACA Board, you will operate in accordance with the Chapter Bylaws. You will be eligible for a stipend of $250 to help you with any start-up costs.
