OB Division “Welcome-a-Member” program

A peer welcome program for new OB Division members.

Sign-ups close Friday, July 3

Why this matters

The Making Connections Committee, on behalf of the OB Division, is offering the Welcome-a-Member program ahead of this year’s annual meeting. The program helps new members navigate the annual meeting and gives them someone to connect with while there. New members are matched with an existing member and can meet ahead of AOM to ask questions and get guidance on navigating the conference.
