Small groups are an integral part of UAUS membership. They provide a space where new readers can mingle with experienced ones, where people can get to know each other and determine who should be sent to serve on the UAUS Council. As a part of our restructuring, we are forming local and virtual associations in which people coalesce around a shared region, interest, or purpose.
In preparation for this shift, we asked you what kind of groups you would like to see formed, and from this survey we received clear guidance about which groups people were most interested in.
For interest and purpose-based groups, most of our respondents wanted to see these groups formed:
- Expo Outreach Association
- Inspired Writers Association
- Reader Services Association
- Readers Corner Association
- Worship, Study, and Serve Association
In addition to these interest and purpose-based groups, there is still a desire to have regional groups. All of the local associations that have long been meeting will continue to do so, uninterrupted, and we will likely form some new ones.
With this feedback, we will begin ushering people into the groups of their choice.
There are a lot of people to communicate with and a lot of preferences to take note of, so we're going to start by reaching out to our current members in a separate email, and then we will reach out to people on this list would like to become members.
