Membership is due by July 1 of every year. Your membership payment is always linked to the calendar year in which you paid, so a payment made in 2022 will cover your membership from January to December of 2022. We will give members a grace period in the beginning of each calendar year to make it easier to simply renew their membership as part of their annual symposium registration (since many of our members do renew that way), but a membership payment will be required for participation at the annual symposium (for example, to participate in the 2023 symposium, we will need a membership payment submitted in 2023 prior to the event).
