Volunteer with ACLP
At ACLP, our progress is fueled by the hard work of a dedicated network of over 200 volunteers that make up the board of directors, committees, and task forces. All goals and projects at ACLP are assigned to specific committees to complete. Over 25 different committees, task forces, and work groups work each year to complete the assignments they have been given.
Volunteering with ACLP is one significant way to make an impact on the profession! Help to develop new resources, initiatives, and programs for the profession. Some examples of work completed recently by committees is the new DEI statement, Community-Based Toolkit, ACLP Blog posts, and more.
Committee participation is also an excellent stepping stone for ACLP members aspiring to serve on the Board of Directors.
