The Congress of Delegates is the Academy’s policy-making body and is part of the process through which members direct the work of the Academy and elect their peers to leadership roles. Delegates and alternate delegates debate and vote on issues that chapters submit via resolutions to the COD. Resolutions allow members, in collaboration with their chapters, to ask the AAFP to act on specific issues on behalf of the specialty. Some requests reflect work the Academy already is doing, and these resolutions may be reaffirmed by the Congress as existing policy. If a resolution calls for new action and delegates adopt it, the AAFP invests resources to address the issue.
