The involvement of other chapter officers and members is vital to the success of the plan. The Vice Presidents, Treasurer, Secretary, Directors and other officers should take responsiblity for each phase of the plan, with the members' input. The plan should be presented to the entire membership for approval and then implemented and evaluated on a periodic basis.
The chapter plan should identify the needs of the members, needs of the community, chapter strengths and weaknesses, long and short term goals, anticipated problems and solution. It should also include a calendar of events.
