It stands to reason that an organization as diverse as USDLA would not force its membership into a “one size fits all” mold. There are, in fact, three broad divisions of membership and each of those divisions has sub-categories within it. On this basis, it is easy and convenient to find a package that will suit your needs. Affiliated chapters have distinct membership packages of their own.
Membership categories are
- Individual
- Student
- National
- Organizational
- Non-profit
- For-profit
- Sponsorships
- Bronze
- Silver
- Gold
- Platinum
