As a volunteer association ARRM relies on its members - principally through ARRM Committees - to guide the association and make positive changes in the industry.

At the heart of every successful ARRM endeavor you'll find the expertise and hard work of ARRM Committee Volunteers. Be it the annual conference, educational workshops, legislative successes, rule reform, strengthening public relations, providing technical assistance for our members or setting new ARRM benefits - the work and brain power of committee members is behind it.
