2026 AAFP Congress of Delegates

The Congress of Delegates (COD) is the AAFP’s policy-making body. Its membership consists of two delegates and two alternates from each constituent chapter and from the member constituencies represented at the National Conference of Constituency Leaders.

The Congress elects new officers and three members to serve on the Board of Directors for the following 12 months. AAFP members are welcome to participate in hearings of the five reference committees: Advocacy, Education, Health of the Public and Science, Organization and Finance, and Practice Enhancement. Reference committees are committees of the COD that consider business (resolutions) items referred to them for recommendation to the COD for debate and action.
