Assembly of Delegates

The biennial Assembly of Delegates is the highest governing body of the association. Its decrees obligate all members and branches of UMANA. The Assembly meets once every two years, near the end of each administrative period. The Board of Directors, which includes the executive committee and the branch presidents, acts between meetings of the assembly.

Executive Committee

The Executive committee consists of the president, president elect, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, one representative branch president, and the non-voting executive director. The committee acts on issues between meetings of the Board of Directors.

Chapter Assembly

Presidents and officers are elected at their local branch meetings. They represent UMANA members who are enrolled in that geographic area (branch). Each branch functions independently, but is governed by the current UMANA by-laws.

Committees
