The ACR developed the Chapter Portal to facilitate communication between the College and its chapters, to expedite the work of chapter leaders and to ease communications among the chapters. Those with access can download chapter membership data, access resources from the College, start and participate in discussions via a discussion board accessible by all users, email chapter leaders in other states, email chapter members, and more.
Access to the Chapter Portal is granted for the duration of the chapter officer, executive staff, councilor, alternate councilor and membership chair’s terms. Users should utilize the acr.org single user sign-on in order to access the Chapter Portal.The ACR Legal Department is available to provide general information on a variety of issues to ACR members and their attorneys.

The ACR recognizes the hardships that chapters are facing during these unprecedented times. As opportunities for meeting in person and conducting chapter business have been limited during the pandemic, we want to offer support. In order to facilitate essential chapter business, foster collaboration among chapter leaders and members, and connect chapters with ACR leaders, the ACR will provide each chapter with support for one virtual meeting between now and June 30, 2021. Chapters will develop and facilitate their own half-day meeting using an ACR-provided meeting platform and technical support (details below).
Meeting Support Includes:
Note: Additional requests for virtual meeting support will be considered on a case-by-case basis and may incur a fee for service.
If your chapter would like to take advantage of this ACR Support for Virtual Meetings, please complete the Speaker Request & Meeting Profile form.
Please direct questions to the ACR Chapter Team at chapters@acr.org.
The ACR provides up to $3,000 to chapters to help send residents and fellows to the ACR Annual Meeting and $1,000 for a young professional to attend the meeting as an alternate councilor. To designate residents and fellows attending the ACR Annual Meeting, please fill out the Sponsoring Members-in-Training form.
