Volunteer with AFERM! Gain leadership & professional responsibility and help to promote the many benefits AFERM offers to federal ERM professionals. AFERM is dependent on its volunteer leaders and cannot sustain its prominence and achieve its mission without volunteer support. Giving back your time, energy, creative ideas, and enthusiasm offers a wonderful opportunity to learn from and gain exposure to federal ERM subject matter experts across the federal risk management profession. Many of our volunteers are leaders in their respective organizations and often looked upon to provide guidance and influence policy.

Let’s be the change we want to see in AFERM!
