DFW Parliamentarians meets on the 4th Monday of every month, except December. We meet at 7pm at the Prairie Paws animal shelter in Grand Prairie on Warrior Trail, a couple of miles west of SH161. Each meeting consists of two educational programs around a full business meeting. The goal is to learn parli procedures AND practice them. Check the Contact Us page for a Google Map. Let us know you're coming in the Contact Form.

The educational sessions consist of a presentation each month by one of the members on a core concept in parliamentary procedures. The current list is below but is updated each meeting for the next several months.

Following a business meeting, we have another program session to study some concept on the Registered Parliamentarian (RP) exam.

The evening runs from 7 - 8:30pm.
