Stipends and recognition

Local officers and other members may receive a stipend as reimbursement for incidental expenses and work performed on personal time for the local. This requires a vote of the membership. Locals are not allowed to offer dues reimbursement, only stipends. There is a Stipend and Recognition Policy and Form linked in the resource section at the end of this manual that have more information about stipends.

Local members that do not receive stipends may receive recognition for recruiting new members or other actions beneficial to the local. More information about recognition for members is at the end of the Stipend and Recognition Policy.
