CEO Welcome Letter

Dear Volunteer,

On behalf of AIP, please accept my gratitude for your time and service as an AIP volunteer. As such, you join the Institute in pursuit of its mission to advance, promote, and serve the physical sciences for the benefit of humanity. Volunteers serve in various capacities—as members of our Board of Directors, advisory/resource groups, taskforces, awards/prizes committees, and in other capacities. Whichever way you serve, your time and efforts are valued and appreciated.

This web-based resource will be your guide to the Institute and the support available to you as a volunteer. Here you will find information about AIP, our Member Societies and Affiliates, programs, committees, and key policies.

AIP is a values-based organization, and we aim to foster an environment that values each person’s contributions and viewpoints through open communication. Our successful environment is also dependent upon your understanding AIP’s standard of excellence and your contributing role.

Ultimately, we want to optimize your volunteer experience, enabling you to perform your duties in ways that are both enjoyable and personally rewarding. If you think of ways in which we can improve, we would be grateful for your feedback. (Email me at mmoloney@aip.org , or Chief of Staff, Liz Dart Caron, at lcaron@aip.org .)

As AIP continues to evolve, we rely on your ideas, talents, and energy to grow our combined influence and impact in the physical sciences. Together, we will do great things.

Sincerely,
