Member Committees

The in-person Member Committee meetings are the heart of our work.  ACFR Committees offer unique opportunities through the Speakers Program. This program brings experts, diplomats, authors, and government officials to the forefront of policy, providing a platform for engagement and interaction. The Member Committees meetings, held monthly, are not just gatherings, but opportunities to interact with Speakers, engage in discussion, share perspectives, and gain knowledge and information, making local Members an integral part of ACFR's work.

Each Committee has unique meeting and membership requirements designed to respond to their specific community. We encourage you to contact a Committee near you to learn more.
