Volunteering provides members the opportunity to learn more about AAOMS, to participate in Association priority objectives and to network. AAOMS encourages members to engage in short-term, long-term or project-specific volunteer opportunities. These opportunities may be in-person, remote or hybrid – and some require travel.

If you want to volunteer with a specific committee, please know that an opportunity may not be immediately available because some appointments are long-term or opportunities may require district representation or membership in the ADA or AMA.

Volunteer opportunities are available in the areas listed below. To confirm your interest to be an AAOMS volunteer, complete the Volunteer Interest Application and email it to governance@aaoms.org or fax it to 847-678-6286. Questions about volunteering also may be emailed to governance@aaoms.org.
