BOARD OF DIRECTOR’S POSITION

The Aplastic Anemia & Myelodysplasia Association of Canada (AAMAC) is a federally incorporated and registered national organization and leading funder of research into bone marrow failure diseases in Canada with the ambitious goal of providing an integrated support network for every patient, family member, friend and health care professional affected by aplastic anemia, myelodysplasia or paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria.

Led by a volunteer Board of Directors and a distinguished team of medical advisors from across Canada, AAMAC is comprised of several provincial chapters and relies on the generosity of donors and volunteers, including Chapter Coordinators, to provide a wide range of much-needed programs and services to the people it serves.

AAMAC is now looking for a volunteer representative based in Alberta to sit on its Board of Directors with a mandate to establish educational and support programs for patients and their support teams to ensure that they are aware of AAMAC’s services. Ideally, but not necessary with an already established network of contacts within the medical community, they will assist in increasing the reach and visibility of AAMAC’s services to reach and support all affected individuals. Experience in governance, community building and a legal background will be considered important assets.
