Membership

Applications for membership can be obtained from the Membership Director or printed from this site. Payment of dues and address changes should be submitted to the Membership Director. General inquiries or comments about the NIA should be directed to the President. The NIA encourages its members to be actively involved in the NIA, and welcomes "letters to the editor" for possible publication in "Drip Points." These letters can be sent to the Information Director.

Prospective members may join the NIA at any time; however, the "membership year" begins on January 1^st and ends on December 31^st. Renewal fees must be received by January 1^st of each year. New members are entitled to all membership privileges immediately upon payment. Immediate family members of Adult Members do not receive duplicates of NIA mailings to the same address, but each member will receive a membership card.  Immediate family members may request the Nominations Chairperson to provide a ballot for elections, for a fee of $2.00.
