There are several categories of membership. The determination of categories/dues and the changes thereafter shall be approved by the Board with a simple majority before Association election each year. The annual membership dues for each category are posted on CALA’s website.
CALA members are encouraged to get involved in the Association's management. Volunteering to serve on a committee or task force would be a great opportunity to help keeping the association live and gain professional experiences.
