Call for Volunteers!

The Rochester Academy of Medicine is always seeking volunteers to fill a variety of open spots on our committees for 2021-2022 to fulfill our mission to advance learning, encourage service and initiate collaboration in bringing better health to our community.   

As you may know, much of the work of the Academy is done at the committee level by many passionate volunteers.  The work is diverse, interesting and fun, and above all, extremely meaningful! 

We have a strong need for volunteers to join our Communication and Program Committees but have opportunity in all areas.  Thank-you for taking the time to consider these opportunities and we look forward to hearing from you!
