The Board of Directors, the governing body of AACOG, made up of representatives of AACOG’s member governments, meets once a month, usually on the fourth Wednesday; however, meetings are convened as needed. The Executive Committee meets quarterly to recommend general policy, review and approve the annual budget, and liaise with human resources. Standing and advisory committees meet on a monthly, bimonthly, quarterly, or annual basis. All meetings are open to the public and accessible to people with disabilities.
