  • Description

    The Membership Committee works to retain and grow CNDA membership. This means we focus on ensuring excellent communication with members and that the CNDA provides information and services to help members succeed. Some of what we do includes working with the Executive Team and other committees to create communications strategies, sending out occasional surveys to members to solicit their input and work to communicate the CNDA value proposition.
