One of the requirements in establishing an OCF Chapter is the adoption of a governing Constitution (By-Laws).
The process of creating a chapter constitution, while not complicated, does require some knowledge of parliamentary procedure and IRS guidelines regarding Not-For Profit Organizations.
To make this process as easy as possible, we have drafted a model constitution that requires you to merely fill in the blanks with specific information related to your OCF chapter. You may view it on-line below and download it below along with an explanation of the applicable IRS regulations.
