Membership Matters: Why AVF Members Stay Engaged

This November 2021 Membership Issue explains the proposed merger of the American Venous Forum and its Foundation into a single organization, then turns to why members join and stay. Five AVF members from research, nursing, and international practice describe how membership shaped their careers, while a medical student and volunteers from Colombia describe the reach of venous surgery training and community screening days. The issue also covers AVF's patient education output and the growing EVF-AVF international collaboration.
