Case Management Society of America > ADVOCACY & OUTREACH

Thank you for your interest in serving on a CMSA Task Force or Committee!

Professional members like you are the driving force behind CMSA's innovative growth and success in meeting the CM need of individual case managers and their employers.

Chairpersons for all committees are appointed by the association President and the nature of some committees/task forces require appointment of qualified individuals to fulfill those roles (also appointed by the President.) However, largely, committee/task force roles are open for member interest and selection.

Currently, only active members of CMSA will be considered for committee assignments.
If you are not currently a CMSA member, you may join online now.

If you would like to help CMSA build leadership bench strength, please indicate your interest(s) below.
