Join or Renew

Dues are now $75 per member. Although dues are on a sliding scale, we ask that everyone joins or renews at the $75 rate, if possible. The lowest annual rate is $20 per individual (with no upper limit). But if this creates a financial burden, the minimum annual dues starts at $20. This is a “pay what you can” model.
