Get Involved

AUPHA relies on its volunteers’ expertise, interest, and enthusiasm to advance excellence in healthcare management education.  Volunteering is a great way to meet your fellow AUPHA members and to maximize your membership investment.  Opportunities range from the ad hoc to the long-term.  We need you to make great things happen and in return, we will do our best to make your experience meaningful and valuable.
