Call for Committee Volunteers

The FY 2026 Call for Volunteers is now closed.

All current members who meet the criteria and can meet the expectations are welcome to volunteer. The Alliance is committed to providing members more opportunities to serve; therefore, members generally may not serve in more than one formal leader or volunteer capacity in any given year. 

The Alliance seeks volunteers that represent the broad diversity of its membership, in terms of individual sex, race, gender identity, ethnicity, and sexual orientation as well as institution size, type, patient population, and location.  Read AAIM's diversity, equity, and inclusion statement.

Applications Now Closed

The FY 2025 Call for Volunteers is now closed. The next call for committee volunteers will open next year, in the spring of 2026. Please check this page regularly for updates.
