Volunteer Interest Form

Thank you for your interest in becoming more involved with ASHHRA as a volunteer leader for an ASHHRA committee or the Board of Directors.


Committee members are typically selected in December to serve in the following year. Occasionally, a position may open up during the year, giving a new volunteer the opportunity to complete the rest of the position's term. Every effort will be made to accommodate your request, however volunteer space is limited and ASHHRA cannot guarantee everyone who applies will be selected to serve.


ASHHRA membership is required in order to be considered for a committee.
