Chapter Request for National Board Member Visit
National Board (NB) members who serve as regional liaisons to chapters have a limited SGMP travel budget from which they plan their own chapter visits within their region. In addition to those visits, every effort will be made to allow each chapteranopportunity for an additional visit by a NBmember.
SGMP Policy NB-4 addresses the process for and financing of these additional National Boardmember visits:
1-NB members are not authorized to use SGMP (national) funds for travel to visit a chapter to speak at or present a program (the chapter requesting the NB member will be responsible for all funding).
2-Chapter presidents must complete this visit request form and submit it to SGMP headquarters 60 days in advance to request a NB member visit.
3-The executive director & CEO and national president review all visit request forms for approval.
4-SGMP headquarters will provide official response within 14 days of receipt of this visit request form.
5-The SGMP policy manual (with the full text of policy NB-4) is available in the online Chapter Board Toolkit.
