Regional Assignments

Each year, AAFCS Student Unit Officers are responsible for serving as the contact person for a particular region within the nation. Student members in each affiliate in that region come to rely on that officer as a source of information and also as a support for the activities of their organization at the local, state, and national level.

The regional assignments are based on a rotation system indicated in the SU Chapter Guidelines. Although an officer may not reside in the region for which he/she is responsible, he/she will assume the role of regional contact for the duration of his/her term. Of course, this does not mean that the officer should hesitate to assist members in the region of their residence. In fact, all officers are expected to be of service to any member, chapter, or affiliate that expresses a need to them.
The AAFCS SU Officers will contribute to the SU electronic newsletter, “In the Know,” which is typcially sent on a quarterly basis to all SU members.
