In most states, providers that join AAHSA automatically become members of their affiliated state associations. These associations’ leaders localize the issues and have the expertise you need to become a provider of choice in your community and your state. For you, that includes:
- Information: receiving the latest regulatory and policy news, contacting experts for technical assistance, earning education credits at innovative conferences, networking with other providers and finding research and information in our publications.
- Incentives: saving money with Group Purchasing and Shared Services partners, participating in ordering discounted publications and finding opportunities for free professional development.
- Inspiration: becoming involved with AAHSA Quality First, our field’s nationally recognized quality improvement program, to become the provider of choice in your community.
AAHSA also offers associate memberships to individuals, national, state and local organizations, retired administrators from AAHSA facilities, students and attorneys. For you, that includes:
- Opportunities: connecting with like-minded individuals and organizations, attending unmatched educational events, writing for publications and reinforcing your role in creating the future of aging services.
- Options: focusing on one part of the field, joining committees or listervs in your interest area, supporting research and discovering new ways to stay involved in this dynamic field.
Finally, we offer business firm memberships to companies that understand our members’ missions. They know the value of putting people before profits in our field, and they work with our other members to keep that vision a reality nationwide.
Despite their differences, everyone from service coordinators to students to salespersons agree on one thing: an AAHSA membership secures a spot in a community committed to making our nation a better place to grow old.
