Join your colleagues in making APHON a more robust association, and volunteer your time and expertise. APHON seeks members at all levels of practice, education, and experience to serve. APHON also offers opportunities for all levels of commitment and availability.

The work of APHON’s committees is directed by the APHON Board of Directors and may shift based on the priorities of the association and alignment with the strategic plan. All committee members should be current APHON members and in good standing for the duration of their term.

Willingness to Serve

The willingness to serve form will open September 2026.

Important Dates to Know

The Willingness to Serve form is open from September 1-30, 2026.

Interested volunteers should ensure their APHON HQ membership is current by October 2, 2026.

All volunteer applications will be reviewed by their respective committees during the months of October/November.

All volunteers serving on committees during 2027 will be required to join the APHON Committee Kick-Off call, held in January 2027.
