The Alabama Section of the American Chemical Society comprises twenty-nine (29) counties (shown in green on the map below) in central and north-central Alabama with its headquarters in Birmingham. We are committed to promoting an interest in the chemical sciences through outreach activities that target students, teachers, and the general public. Chartering of the Alabama Section was granted by the ACS Council on March 24, 1913; making it the 43rd local section in the nation and the 5th in the south. Four other local sections (North Alabama, Wilson Dam, Auburn, and Mobile) cover the remaining counties in the state.
