INAFSM has created a new Floodplain Administrator Mentoring Program to connect experienced floodplain administrators with those new to the role or wanting to learn how to handle a specific situation. Our mentors have very likely been in your situation and are available to provide insight on day-to-day responsibilities, share their experiences and provide guidance on how to move forward.

This program is available to INAFSM members only. If not already a member, please consider joining INAFSM to take advantage of this and other membership opportunities.
