Membership Dues Renewal

We are preparing to send all agencies their OACP membership dues renewal in the next week. Be looking for it in your inbox. Please note: the renewal form/invoice will only be sent to Agency Organization key contacts (aka. chiefs or agency leaders), and "Other Associates." All active (non-chiefs) and associate members will have their membership dues paid for by the head of the agency. All OACP members associated with that organization will be listed on the invoice and their dues can be paid with one transaction. In the past, each member received their own invoice.  If you have questions about this, reach out to us at the OACP office.

 

Membership Application Period Now Open

Recent changes in the OACP Bylaws required some creative and challenging editing to our membership application form. After many hours and even more drafts and test submissions, our new revised membership application form is now ready to roll! If you have staff members that you would like to become OACP members (to be reviewed at our January Board Meeting), we are now ready to receive applications.  Click here for  membership information and the application form.
