Bylaws Review Task Force
The Bylaws Review Task Force has been established by the Board of Directors as an ad hoc advisory committee in order to: review AMIA’s bylaws for their effectiveness in defining rules of governance for AMIA’s evolving structure and membership; present recommendations to the Board for any revisions deemed necessary; and recommend a means for continuing systematic review of the bylaws to keep pace with future changes in the association. The Task Force will seek input from the Board and the membership throughout its charge, and will work closely with the Strategic Plan Implementation Task Force where the recommendations of that group require changes in the bylaws.

Research what other associations in related fields have done to increase diversity; what has been effective and what has not? Draft an AMIA position statement on diversity for the Board to consider; this statement, if approved would become AMIA policy and be included in the association's strategic plan. Recommend specific goals and objectives for increasing diversity in AMIA and the field as a whole.
