FY 2027 Call for Council Nominations

Thank you for your interest in serving on an association or constituent council in FY 2027. AAIM has changed the councilor nomination to a form-based self-nomination process. Although you must be a current member to nominate yourself, councils have different requirements for councilor eligibility. All councilor terms are three years. Members may nominate themselves for only one open council position per year.

All FY 2027 council nominations are due Wednesday, October 8, at 11:59 p.m. EDT; all nominations must be submitted through the online form, emailed materials will not be accepted.

The Alliance seeks governance that represent the broad diversity of its membership, in terms of individual sex, race, gender identity, ethnicity, and sexual orientation as well as institution type, program size, patient population, and location.

  • Be able to serve a three-year term.

  • Step down from any active committee positions by June 30, 2026, to allow others the opportunity to serve
