About

Introduction

The Alaska Association of Municipal Clerks was established in 1965 as a small non-profit organization; 13 determined clerks made up the charter membership.  Their intent was to promote sound local government and the continuing education of municipal clerks throughout the state of Alaska.

Today, AAMC has transformed into a professional organization of borough, city, and village clerks from across the state, all the while remaining dedicated to the continued growth and development of the municipal clerk profession.
