Resources Supporting Your Work

Here are just a few resources that will help support your work.

Benefits of Membership

  • Connection to a network of peers
  • Newsletter supporting your work
  • National voice
  • Discounts on kindred group education 

 

What do your kindred dues pay for? When you opt to pay the $40/year Medical and Disability kindred group dues, you are supporting the work of that kindred group to host their events (both virtual and in-person) and you are supporting the overall work of the association. There are times when the leadership of this group may determine to spend dues to fund a particular event or project related to the interests of this kindred. Anyone may attend the virtual and in-person events hosted by this group whether you have chosen to pay the elective dues or not. Some in-person events, such as events at the national conference, may have an additional cost. Read more about all the ACA kindred and affinity groups.
