Share Your Time
AALI needs volunteers to help power our events and make sure things run smoothly.
In addition, the strength of our public-facing events depends on the attendance of those in our community who can enhance the conversations with their knowledge and experiences and help provide more well-rounded discussions for our fellows to engage in. In other words, we need you in the room!

Share Your Talents
We are always looking for workshop speakers who are willing to share their expertise and help lay a blueprint for Austin’s African American leaders to make a change in the city.
The right person could be in your network – or it could be you! Like and share our posts on social media to help spread the word about the work we’re doing and help us attract the best talent to enhance our program offerings.
