[[File:ALAC Policy Advice Development Process.png|655px|thumbnail|right|ALAC Policy Advice Development (Image from ICANN.org)]]The ALAC does not develop policy; it publicizes, analyzes, and provides advice on ICANN policy proposals and decisions. [[Public Comment]] proceedings are the main channel through which the ALAC advises ICANN. It also corresponds with and responds to input requests from other ICANN body working groups.

When a new [[Public Comment]] opens, the ALAC consults with subject matter experts within the [[At-Large Community]] to decide if it should make a statement on the topic. It uses mailing lists, RALO, and working groups to build consensus. Then, the ALAC determines who should be the ~~“penholders~~,” the individuals responsible for the initial draft of the statement to be submitted to the Public Comment. The completed draft is posted on the ALAC Wiki workspace for comment and then it is finalized. Then the 15 ALAC members ratify and submit the document to the Public Comment as a formal ALAC Policy Advice Statement.

===Organization Building===

The ALAC seeks to ensure sure that all [[ALS]]es and individual members understand [[ICANN |ICANN’s mission and core value]], contribute to policy developments, and sustain the flow of end-user volunteers into the [[Multistakeholder Model]] of ICANN. The committee does in three ways: capacity building, outreach, and operational matters, all of which focus on cultivating RALOs and ALSes. The most formalized of the ~~ALAC’s~~ means is its operational contributions, which include:
