        <ExplanationTxt>Articles of Incorporation: The Articles of Incorporation were amended to change the organization's legal name from the National Association of Child Care Resource and Referral Agencies to Child Care Aware of America. The statement of purposes of CCAoA was amended to be " The specific purpose of the Corporation is to promote the development, maintenance and expansion of quality child care and resource and referral services through public education, technical assistance, and information sharing". Bylaws: The Bylaws were amended to modify the classes and rights of membership, change the composition of the Board of Directors, and modify the manner of election and terms of officers. A. Membership. 1. Voting Members. The following types of organizations are eligible for admission to CCAoA as voting members: state and local CCR&amp;Rs; government organizations and agencies; nonprofit organizations, which include organizations involved in early childhood care and education; and for-profit corporations, including industry suppliers (collectively, the "Voting Members"). Each Voting Member is required to designate a representative to act on behalf of the Voting Member at membership meetings. 2. Non-Voting Members. The following individuals are eligible for admission to CCAoA as non-voting members: individual child care professionals; affiliate members, to include any individuals employed by a CCR&amp;R; honorary members; and student members, to include individuals engaged in a course of study focused on early childhood education (collectively, the "Non-Voting Members"). 3. Voting Rights. Each Voting Member will have the right to cast one vote on all matters brought before the membership. Non-Voting Members may attend meetings of the membership, but do not have the right to vote. 4. Quorum. One-third of the Voting Members must be present in person or by proxy at a meeting of the members in order to fulfill a quorum. The quorum requirement was previously one-fourth of the voting power. B. Board of Directors. The following amendments were made to determine the composition of the Board of Directors, the manner in which individuals are elected to the Board, and the terms of office of Directors. 1. Number of Directors. The size of the Board of Directors was increased from a range of 15-17 members, to a Board made up of 20 members. 2. Composition of Board.

One (1) representative of a nonprofit organization; c. One (1) representative of a for-profit corporation or other corporate entity; d. One (1) representative of a government agency or organization; and e. Twelve (12) at-large Directors, who may represent any category of Voting Member. 3. Election of Directors. The Board Development Committee will be charged with developing a slate of candidates for election to the Board, with a candidate proposed for each vacant seat on the Board of Directors. The nominees proposed by the Board Development Committee must comply with the Board composition requirements set forth above. The Board Development Committee will submit the proposed slate to the Board of Directors for approval. Directors will then be elected by the Voting Members, upon the affirmative vote of a majority of Voting Members participating in a vote where a quorum is fulfilled approving the slate of candidates. 4. Term of Office. Each Director will serve a three (3) year term, and may serve two (2) consecutive terms. The terms of Directors will be staggered, such that approximately one-third of the Directors will be elected on an annual basis. 5. Quorum. The quorum has been increased from one-fifth of the authorized number of Directors to a majority of the number of Directors in office. C. Officers. The following amendments were made to define the officers of CCAoA, the qualifications of certain officers, the manner of election of such officers, and the terms of office. 1. Officer Positions. CCAoA will have the following officers: President, Vice-President, Secretary, Treasurer, and Past President. The position of President-Elect will be eliminated. 2. Qualifications. In order to be eligible to serve as President, an individual must have served on the CCAoA Board of Directors for at least one (1) year prior to his or her election to the President position. 3. Election. The President, Vice-President, Secretary and Treasurer will be elected from among the members of the Board of Directors by the vote of the Board of Directors. 4. Terms.
