Membership
The strength of ASHI in in its Chapters. ASHI Chapters are the grass-roots perspective that is needed to help set policies and get a real feel for the member’s concerns. The advantages of a Chapter are numerous. The opportunities for local promotion of your involvement in ASHI, enhanced legislative clout, improved educational opportunities, (including the ability to attain a significant amount of Continuing Education credits) are only a few. Also, there are several benefits available from ASHI to Chapters, that members-at-large do not receive. These include direct representation in ASHI via the Council of Representatives, monthly newsletters to the leadership from Headquarters, State Legislative updates, and the opportunity (at least partially reimbursed) to take part in the annual ASHI Leadership Conference program, in conjunction with the National fall Board Meeting.
ASHI believes that members who are active participants in their local Chapters are more likely to remain with ASHI, and to experience the benefits of membership more fully. Associates in particular benefit from the local involvement that a Chapter can provide.
