ARMA Members As we continue to bolster the support of our chapters and members, we are excited to announce the members of the newly formed Chapter Advisory Committee. The Chapter Advisory Committee volunteers will work hard to ensure ARMA Chapters, both big and small, are provided with elevated and standardized resources. Volunteers are the backbone of the ARMA community and the core of the success of our organization. I've had the chance to meet with many of our volunteer leaders over the last few months, and I continue to be amazed at the commitment and drive of those individuals who continue pushing ARMA to be the best it can be. The Board of Directors, headquarters staff, and committee members are all dedicated to the success of ARMA International at every level, and we look forward to the amazing things to come! If you are interested in volunteering, please check out the opportunities here. Please make sure you check out the many exciting things going on at ARMA, and I look forward to seeing you all in Nashville in October!
