Organizational Resources

​Purpose Statement

The Organizational Resources Committee will review and advise on zone and society bylaws and proposed amendments, and approve those not in conflict with District bylaws.  Following LWML guidelines, we will submit proposed District bylaws amendments for review by the District Board of Directors and the national Structure Committee, and present amendments to delegates at a district convention for a vote to adopt or not adopt the proposed amendments.​
