Over the course of time, the members of the Association have adopted policy statements to serve as advice and counsel to the membership in a variety of areas. The year each policy statement was adopted at a Biennial Meeting of the Association appears in parentheses, following the title of the policy statement.

Once adopted a policy statement is published until removed by formal action of the members of the Association. Because policy statements are for "advice and counsel," they are formally distinct from the Standards of Accreditation.
