Become a Member.

Our organization is powered by volunteer work, some foundational support, and financial contributions from our members - “membership dues.” The primary factor that distinguishes members from non-members is the ability to vote on organizational decisions. Both members and non-members are able to attend the monthly CAS general meeting and support CAS’s research and activities in the community.

It is important to us that membership dues to not prevent people interested in CAS from participating, so we invite you to contribute at whatever level feels comfortable for you today. If the amount requested for dues is prohibitive for you, please let us know.

Suggested dues amounts are $25, $50, $75, $100 (or more). We especially welcome the participation of young people (22 years and under) for $5.

All adult memberships have the same voting privileges. Members must be of at least 18 years old to vote in CAS.
