Are you interested in becoming more involved with NEERO?

• Consider serving on the NEERO Board. Board members graciously volunteer their time and expertise to design and oversee the annual conference. Board members are expected to attend approx. six meetings per year, register for and attend the annual conference, and complete role-specific duties (such as organizing conference sessions, engaging current members and building the membership across New England).
• Consider serving as a reviewer for conference submissions. Reviewers are tasked with reviewing and providing constructive feedback on a handful of proposals during the month of November. All of the work is completed online and is guided by the NEERO Board. This is a great service opportunity for professionals and a valuable experience for graduate students. 
• Consider joining or presenting via the NEERO Circles Committee. This Committee organizes several virtual events over the year with opportunities for members to present their work, discuss problems of practice and research, offer ideas and tips on publishing, and other special topics of interest to NEERO members.
• Consider joining a NEERO Committee. NEERO is continually interested in building our social, graduate student, and communications committees. Let us know if you can give some time to engage and expand our NEERO community in these ways!
