Volunteering on AFP Global Committees

< See also: Get Involved: AFP Volunteer Opportunities

Leadership opportunities. That is one of the top benefits that members consistently tell AFP is of upmost importance to them. There are numerous leadership opportunities available to members, on both the AFP chapter and AFP Global levels.

There are several volunteer opportunities available at the global level of AFP. There are many committees, subcommittees, councils and task forces that are created each year based upon the strategic and business plans identified by AFP leaders and staff. These opportunities range in scope and are focused at the broader international or national level of scope. Each opportunity is identified, and an expected time commitment is indicated next to the committee or task force.

Most of the work is done virtually. There are opportunities to meet during ICON and LEAD, but attendance at the in-person meetings is not mandatory to serving at the Global level.
