Establishing a New MIG
The formation of MIGs will be evaluated on an annual basis, at the beginning of each calendar year, aiming to launch in April of the current year. Submissions for new MIGs can be turned in at any time. However, the process of adding new MIGs will take place at the beginning of each calendar year.
• Requirements:
o Three founding leaders of the MIG
o List of at least 75 interested, current ACLM members
o Written support from another current MIG leader
o Written Mission/Vision for the MIG (developed by founding leaders)
• Process:
o Submissions will be reviewed by the ACLM Team and Membership Committee
o The number of new MIGs chosen for approval will depend on relevance to ACLM’s mission/vision and strategic plan, level of requests from our membership, and ACLM bandwidth to support the groups appropriately.
o All proposed MIGs will be reviewed by our Membership Committee and ACLM Directors, ranked, and voted upon.
• Once approved, ACLM will work with the MIG Leaders for the launch of the group, promotion, and leader onboarding. Once the MIG has launched, it is open to any ACLM members.
