AFMR Sections


AFMR members are automatically entitled to membership in one of the four regional sections, Eastern, Midwestern, Southern or Western. Participation in section activities is an excellent path to becoming involved in AFMR national leadership since each section is represented on the AFMR national council by four representatives: section chair, chair-elect, secretary-treasurer and one elected councilor-at-large.
