Model Nonprofit Corporation Act

The Model Nonprofit Corporation Act (MNCA) is model legislation prepared by the Nonprofit Organizations Committee of the Business Law Section of the American Bar Association ^[1]. The MNCA is a model set of statutes governing nonprofit corporations proposed for adoption by state legislatures.

Many of the default procedures of the MNCA are different from standard parliamentary procedure, though they may be superseded by a provision either in the articles of incorporation or in the bylaws of the corporation.^[2]
