Connect and Engage in Meetings, Networking Events, and Special Interest Groups
Take the first step in getting more involved in ACHA by attending a section, affiliate, or coalition meeting or by attending one or more of the affinity and special interest group discussions.
Committee and Coalition Meetings
ACHA coalitions and committees address a diverse range of exciting issues pertinent to ACHA and the health of college students, and they are a vital component of the association’s work and mission. Coalitions are open to any members with an interest in the topic; committee membership is approved by the president. Most committee and coalition meetings take place on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. All meetings are open to all, but you must be a current ACHA member to join.
Section Meetings and Networking
ACHA’s nine sections reflect the professional diversity of the individual members of ACHA. Each section elects or appoints its own section officers, who provide leadership, guidance, and programming for members, including selecting their own programs for the ACHA Annual Meeting. Your section is a great way to get involved with your peers and an even better place to take on a leadership role within the association. Section meetings and networking events take place on Wednesday and are open to all members of the section.
Affiliate Meetings and Networking
ACHA’s 11 affiliates have their own officers who provide leadership, guidance, and programming to members including conducting their own annual meetings. The affiliate network is a great way to get involved with college health. Affiliate meetings and networking events take place on Thursday during the lunch break and are open to all members of the affiliate.
Discussion/Special Interest Groups
Discussion/Special Interest Group gatherings are open to all meeting attendees interested in the topic being discussed. Most discussions take place on Thursday following general sessions.
