IPA Committees, Task Forces and Regional Initiatives
The volunteers of IPA play a key role
within our organization. Our volunteers help
to shape the direction of IPA and their hard
work is one of the reasons we are such a
special and unique community within the
Field of Psychogeriatrics.
If you are interested in volunteering for
one of IPA’s Committees or would like to
become involved with a Task Force or
Regional Initiative, please contact the
Chair or the IPA Secretariat at
info@ipa-online.org.
