The APA Policy Manual is a collection of policy actions taken by the APA Council of Representatives. This edition includes actions taken after 1960 and up to but not including August 2001. The texts included in the Manual are the texts of the actual motions passed by Council.

I. DUTIES OF THE PRESIDENT

1. 1957

The Council voted to place on record its opinion that the Board is empowered to take interim actions regarding the duties of the President if it regards such action as necessary.

II. RETREAT MEETINGS

1. 1994

Council took the following action regarding Retreat meetings: "One Retreat meeting shall be held in a location selected by the President and the other be held in Washington, D.C. area. The Committee further recommends the following be considered when planning for retreat meetings: overall cost (travel and on-site expenses), number and necessity of APA staff, and preference given to locations that 1) cannot be selected for conventions due to size of the APA meetings, and 2) include constituencies that are under represented in APA membership.
