Benefits of Membership

In years past, membership was conferred automatically to all individuals who registered and attended the state conferences.  With the introduction of the 2019 bylaws, membership instead became a separate function separate from conference membership.  This change allows individuals to join the membership even if they are unable to attend a state conference. 

Although the organization has been on hiatus since 2021, membership dues will likely be re-implemented during the 2024-2025 fiscal year. The specific details will be announced once financial accounts have been re-established and tax statuses updated.  In the meantime, we encourage all prospective members to view the 2023 revision to the bylaws, which outlines the plans for advanced membership options.

As a paying member of OACADA, you receive:

  • Discounts on conference registration fees;

More information will be available soon.  In the meantime, feel free to register for your free OACADA.org account, and join our mailing list!
