  2. OUTLINE • BOTTOM LINE FIRST (TRUST ME - YOU’LL LIKE IT!) • HOW THE ANNUAL ACTIVITY PLAN IS FORMULATED • HOW YOU CAN INFLUENCE ANNUAL ACTIVITY PLAN CONTENT Educate Advocate Support 1

  3. THE BOTTOM LINE • THE ANNUAL ACTIVITY PLAN TEMPLATE IS JUST THAT - A TEMPLATE OF OPTIONS TO CHOOSE FROM • NONE OF THE CONDUCT/SUPPORT OPTIONS ON THE TEMPLATE IS MANDATORY • CHAPTERS CHOSE ONLY THOSE OPTIONS THAT BEST FIT THEIR SITUATION OR FOCUS • INCLUDE THOSE ACTIVITIES REQUIRED TO MEET MINIMUM QUARTERLY REPORTING REQUIREMENTS • ADD OTHER CHAPTER ACTIVITIES NOT ADEQUATELY DESCRIBED IN TEMPLATE • OTHERWISE, DELETE EVERYTHING ELSE ON THE TEMPLATE THAT DOESN’T FIT A CHAPTER! Educate Advocate Support 1

  4. THE BOTTOM LINE • THE TEMPLATE FORMAT IS REQUIRED, BUT THE CONDUCT/SUPPORT ACTIVITIES ARE OPTIONAL • STATE & REGION PRESIDENTS VALIDATE AND CERTIFY ANNUAL PLANS AND QUARTERLY REPORTS • SPs/RPs DETERMINE WHAT IS QUALIFYING AND WHAT IS NOT • ALL CHAPTERS MUST CONDUCT OR SUPPORT ONE PROGRAM/ACTIVITY PER QUARTER TO QUALIFY FOR 25% OF THE SUPPORT PAYMENT. • IF THE CHAPTER CONDUCTS TWO PROGRAMS/ACTIVITIES, THEY QUALIFY FOR 50% (IF ROSTERS, PLANS, AND REPORTS ARE SUBMITTED) • FIELD COUNCIL APPROVES THE ANNUAL ACTIVITY PLAN TEMPLATE Educate Advocate Support 1

  5. FORMULATION OF ANNUAL ACTIVITY PLAN • SPC SEEKS INPUTS FROM ALL AFA COUNCILS AND COMMITTEES FOR STRATEGIC PLANNING DOCUMENTS • STRATEGIC PLAN ONCE EVERY 3 YEARS • INTERNAL FACTORS & TASKINGS ANNUALLY • CONTENTS OF PLAN AND INTERNAL FACTORS TASKINGS APPROVED BY EXCOM/BOD • APPROVED STRATEGIC OBJECTIVES AND INTER-NAL FACTORS TASKINGS WHICH APPLY TO FIELD: • APPEAR ON NEXT YEAR’S ACTIVITY PLAN • QUARTERLY REPORTS USED TO MEASURE DEGREE OF ACCOMPLISHMENT Educate Advocate Support 1
