Committees

All members are welcome and encouraged to participate in our committees. There is a variety and something for everyone. If you see something that interests you, please let us know (see the Officers and Board Members tab to contact any of them). This is a great way to get to know your fellow CIAO members and the more people helping, the lighter the load for everyone. Thank you!
