AFA Council 39 in Portland is currently in need of volunteers to serve on the following Committees:

• Benefits Committee
• Inflight Service Committee
• Reserve Committee
• Uniform Committee

You can read more about each position by clicking on the Committee name above.

What Do AFA Committees Do?

Members of AFA Committees serve in three primary roles.

• An Expert. Serve as the subject matter expert on the committee’s primary area of responsibility
• A Resource. Act as a resource about their area of expertise and work to actively educate and empower Members
• A Voice. Work as a liaison between Members and the Local Executive Council, Master Executive Council, and management involving matters related to the committee

How Much Time Do I Need to Commit?

On average, most Committee Members spend just a few minutes each day reading and responding to email.  During busy periods, Committee Members might also spend time returning phone calls.  Some Committees also have quarterly meetings held either locally or in Seattle which might require attendance.
