The Association By-Laws are periodically reviewed to ensure they accurately reflect the organization. The Board has reviewed and updated them with the goals they should:
- Be as simple as possible
- Fulfill requirements in the Articles of Incorporation
- Reflect what we actually do
- Focus on our core purpose to promote and educate about the Grand Jury.
As such, the following changes were made:
- Changed the membership-year to the Court July-June year
- Removed the Associate Member distinction
- Restructured the Committees section by removing committees we don’t have and creating 2 committee categories: permanent and ad-hoc.
The Board approved these changes at the August 1, 2024 Board meeting. The entire GJAOC membership voted and approved them September 12, 2024. The current By-Laws can be viewed here.
