RECRUITING FOR HLAA-OR REGULAR & BOARD MEMBERS

Both Regular Members and Board Members are actively sought by Hearing Loss Association of America, and the Oregon State Association (HLAA-OR).

REGULAR Members

To become a Regular Member of HLAA-OR, all you need to do is join the national Hearing Loss Association of America (HLAA) or become a member of a HLAA chapter in Oregon and you will automatically become a Regular Member of HLAA-OR. You are then eligible to vote in the annual HLAA-OR general election for HLAA-OR Board members.

 BOARD Members

HLAA-OR Board Members are elected by Regular Members and serve for specific and overlapping terms. In order to run for election, interested individuals must be members of the national organization (HLAA).
