Email List & Online Forum
ASAC - Community

ASAC has two email groups available to members and friends: ASAC-Announce and ASAC-Chat.

ASAC-Announce is a list for announcement of ASAC news and events. All the announcements are sent out by the list moderator. Members are added automatically to ASAC-Announce if they provide an email address upon joining. There are typically a few announcements a month. If you think you should be on this list, but are not getting announcements, or you would like to join or update your email address (or ask to be removed from the list), please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . It is not necessary to be an ASAC member to be on the announcements mailing list.

ASAC-Chat is an unmoderated group open to ASAC members and friends for discussion on any topic of interest to the group members (and usually vaguely pertinent to ASAC). It is a Yahoo group, and you can look at and search back postings easily. Any member of the group can post messages with the other members of the group will see. Postings can be viewed at the group website, or emailed to list members.

Although the intent of this group is to provide a convenient discussion forum for ASAC members and friends, it is okay to (within reason) post about third party events on ASAC-Chat, look for childcare, or other miscellaneous items. Click here to join ASAC-Chat.
