SMS is pleased to announce the 2026 SMS Interest Groups & Communities (IG&C) Annual Business Meetings. Each year, IG&C leaders host these virtual meetings to bring members together, strengthen connections, and celebrate the work happening across their interest group or community.
Free for SMS members, these meetings are an opportunity to connect with colleagues, reflect on the past year’s accomplishments, learn about initiatives for the upcoming year. You’ll also hear about leadership opportunities, IG&C elections, and ways to become more involved.
Join your fellow members to celebrate your Interest Group or Community, share your ideas, and discover new ways to engage with your IG&C throughout the coming year.
Registration is required for each meeting; cost is complimentary.
