Correspondence, 1966-1980, 1992

 Sub-Series

Scope and Contents

From the Series:

Division and Committee records, which also include other subdivisions of the College such as the ACNM Foundation, the Government Liaison Office, and Regional and Local Chapters, are more targeted, but also more sporadic and less comprehensive in their coverage of each Division or Committee's activities compared to the Board of Directors meeting minutes. The records are organized alphabetically, and arranged chronologically according to their form or function. Much of the correspondence between Committee chairs and the ACNM President or Executive Secretary will be located in the Executive Office series. Divisions are listed first, with the Division of Accreditation (formerly Approval), including the Board of Review and Education Program Self-Evaluation Reports, making up the bulk of the records. Standing Committees are listed next; the Archives, Clinical Practice, Legislative, and Research and Statistics Committees are fairly well documented, with others much less so. Government Liaison Office records include Congressional testimony, correspondence of two liaison officers Sally Tom and Karen Ehrnman, and Tom's "History of Federal Funding of Nurse-Midwifery Education, 1960-1983." A large section of this series deals with the work that ACNM did internationally through their Special Projects Section.
