Definition
Programs that help newly formed organizations develop bylaws which define the rules for their internal governance. Bylaws generally have sections on organization name and office location, purpose or mission, membership (e.g., requirements, voting rights, termination, resignation, reinstatement); meetings of members, the board of directors (e.g., powers, number, tenure, qualifications, duties, regular and special meetings, quorum, voting, vacancies), officers (e.g., number, election and term of office, removal, vacancies, powers and duties, salaries), committees, notice of meetings, signatory powers, amendments and dissolution or sale of assets. Also included are programs that help established organizations review and, when necessary, revise their bylaws.
