As a reminder or explanation for new nurse officers, the difference between voting and non-voting membership is: 

Formal voting members -- The N-PAC formal voting members will consist of representatives from Operating (OPDIV) and Staff (STAFFDIV) Division and non-HHS organizations where HHS nurses are assigned or detailed.  There are limits to the number of voting membership slots per agency based on the number of nurses assigned to a particular agency.  These nurses self nominate themselves after obtaining supervisory approval and are elected by the NPAC SR leadership - which include the voting members.  Formal voting members have 3 year terms and have specific attendance, participation, and leadership requirements that are spelled out in our NPAC bylaws and SOP’s... 

Non-voting members – all other nurses that participate in the general membership meetings and other N-PAC activities.  All are encouraged to participate in subcommittee’s or ad hoc committees at any time, however there are no formal participation requirements unless you join a particular subcommittee for a year or more.  The process for joining a subcommittee is to respond via email when open calls for nominations are placed via this general business meeting or via the nursing listserv.
