Local AEA Chapters

Local AEA Chapter Development

The Army Engineer Association (AEA) is working to establish a network of local AEA Chapters in various locations. 

These individual chapters will serve as an information conduit for getting information and ideas out to the entire Army Engineer Community.

We need your help to start and support more local chapters. 

New Chapter Development Kits

The AEA has developed a “Chapter Kit” which will make it easier to establish and operate a chapter.

Chapter Kit includes the following:

  • SOP that guides each proposed chapter’s step-by-step process, helping to fully develop an operational chapter.
  • The Army Engineer Association Bylaws
  • Chapter Affiliation Agreement
  • SS-4, Application of Employer Identification Number
  • Army Regulation 210-22
  • IRS Form 990-N User Guide
  • Funding for initial startup costs
  • Initial startup materials

The AEA will provide continued support to chapters in:

  • Identifying local AEA members in their local area to help them reach out to get them involved in the chapter
  • Assistance in linking the new chapter with other established chapters, facilitating cross-talk on lessons learned
  • Providing ideas for funding opportunities (i.e., AEA mobile store, 5K runs, local sponsorship, and more)
