Membership revenues help to maintain the website, produce the Journal on Developmental Disabilities, the brOADDcast on-line newsletter, and help with the organization of the annual conference.

We list all members on our website. OADD offers enhanced listings to Patrons, and Organizational members including name, address, an email link and website; Sustaining members are listed by name and email (if requested), General members by name only. Contact us for more information.

We also provide website space for members to post information about research projects they are involved in as well as jobs and educational opportunities.

All members receive notices of conferences, training events, surveys, or resource offerings. Paying members are welcome to distribute their own material to fellow members by piggy-backing on Association mail outs. Contact the OADD office to have something distributed to our members or posted on the website.

All members may nominate individuals for awards and scholarships, and all members may steer Association policy by voting on motions tabled at the annual meeting. Members are eligible for election to the Board of Directors of OADD.

Organizational and Patron members receive a certificate and complimentary print copies of the Journal as published in the membership year (up to 2 per year). **New this year** Organizational and Patron members also receive copies of the journal table of contents in PDF format via email. The PDF has direct links to the various articles and is suitable for email distribution to staff in an easy to read, environmentally friendly format.
