ASCA Affinity Groups

The ASCA Affinity Groups are small communities of members who share a similar area of interest or identity. Affinity Group members enjoy opportunities to discuss shared challenges, brainstorm solutions, identify valuable resources and network with like-minded peers. Each group is formed based on grassroots interest and needs and offers opportunities for meaningful conversations in safe spaces. ASCA Affinity Groups are self-directed and led by members. It is recommended that Affinity Groups meet monthly (Zoom), although groups may choose what works best for their community. In short, ASCA Affinity Groups are encouraged to communicate and collaborate as best fits the group. Participation is for ASCA members only. Want to get involved?
