CALL FOR NEW AMCHP COMMITTEE MEMBERS

What's our Why?
AMCHP is a membership association. As a member, Committees are a way for you to effect meaningful change on a national level, have your voice be heard, and to be a part of conversations only we are having.

You have to be an AMCHP member to join a committee. Not a member yet? Here's how you join: https://amchp.org/become-a-member/

AMCHP Committee participation is a member benefit: AMCHP committees assist the organization in carrying out its mission, goals, and strategic plan. As a member of a committee, you will be playing an important role in the development of AMCHP's program and policy activities. At the same time, volunteering on an AMCHP committee offers you rich professional development opportunities and potentially provides a future pathway towards greater leadership roles in this organization.

AMCHP committee members are volunteers. This survey is intended to solicit new volunteers for committees. If you are already serving on a committee and are up for reappointment for a second or third term, you will be contacted separately and are asked not to use this survey to express interest in reappointment.

Please let us know you are interested in becoming a NEW member of one or more of our committees by taking our survey below. The Call for New Committee Members will remain open throughout the year and you may be contacted as openings on committees arise throughout the year.

Enhanced Demographics

AMCHP is collecting information on race, ethnicity, gender, ability, and age to ensure that our committees are racially, culturally, ability, and age diverse. This tracking mirrors our commitment to ensuring that decision-making is aligned with business practices that optimize inclusion, accessibility, operational transparency, and technical/advisory supports for fair and equitable access to resources. AMCHP is making intentional decisions to ensure a richness of perspectives contributing to our committees, which we want to be reflected across all of our work. Reporting on these categories is optional, and you may report on as many or as few as you wish.
