CHAPTER MEMBERSHIP
Chapter Membership is almost as simple as National Membership. Our chapter currently does not require dues and we simply ask our members to attempt to be as much a part of our community as they can! That can be attending meetings or helping us help the community with volunteering activities. You get what you put in! For the latest information follow us on our social media or contact us.
