Governance
The Association of Free Community Papers is governed by its Board of Directors and its by-laws.
The officers positions are elected by the AFCP membership (President, three Vice Presidents, Secretary-Treasurer and two At-Large members). The other board seats are appointed by state and regional affiliated associations.
Officers serve a term of two years and appointed board members serve one or two year terms at the discretion of their represented association. State and regional associations can appoint one or two board seats depending on whether more than 20 of their members are also members of AFCP.
The National Advertising Network, Inc. is a solely owned subsidiary of AFCP and has its own separate Board of Directors. The terms and seats are determined by the AFCP Board of Directors in accordance with NANI’s bylaws.
