GOVERNANCE

APPAM is a nonprofit corporation recognized as exempt from federal income taxes by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service. Founded in 1979, APPAM incorporated in 1999 under the laws of Washington, the District of Columbia.

The association is governed by its elected Policy Council (board of directors) and its membership. The Executive Committee of the Policy Council, consisting of the eight elected officers along with the editor of the Journal of Policy Analysis and Management (ex officio non-voting) and the APPAM executive director (ex officio non-voting) are empowered to act on behalf of the Policy Council in certain instances. The membership meets annually to apporove election ballots for the Polcy Council, receive financial reports, and raise any issues of concern. For detailed information, please read the APPAM bylaws in PDF format here. APPAM has a standing Committee of Institutional Representatives for the purpose of representing the interests of the institutional members. That committee elects several members of the Policy Council and has adopted formal procedures. To read those procedures in PDF format, please click here.
