20. Why is there a recognition process?
The reason for the recognition process is to make sure each chapter has the preparation and structure to be an effective M.E.Ch.A. chapter, both on their respective campus and in the barrios. Also, the recognition process is necessary to keep all individual chapters active and functioning according to Statewide/National Structure guidelines. The last two  (2) paragraphs from the preamble of the California Statewide Constitution also add reason to the recognition process:
21. Why is recognition necessary?
A constitution is the framework for your Chapter and should include the purpose of the Chapter, the requirements, rights, and obligations of the members, the officers and duties, the method of election, committees and their functions, major points regarding meetings, and the manner of making ammendments.
The purpose of your Chapter should complement the purpose of your Central's Constitution:
The constitution should fit your Chapter. (Note: To adopt another constitution as your own is a dangerous practice). Every item in the constitution should be fundamental and have a definite purpose. The Chapter's constitution should allow for ammendments to be made.
We are not requiring that all Chapters generate "carbon copy" constitutions. Rather, the guideline present the minimum information your constitution MUST contain from the Statewide and National constitution to be recognized as a M.E.Ch.A. Chapter.
