Mailing Lists
We have heard you and we have listened.
Now AMDA members have the option for their address information not to be sold on mailing lists.
Please keep in mind that the national office only sells the mailing list for educational purposes.
Phone numbers, fax numbers, and e-mail addresses are not sold.
If you do not wish for your information to be sold, please send your request via fax to 410/740-4572 or e-mail to membership@amda.com.

The Numbers are In...
Our new membership database is up and running.
Over the last year we have purged a
number of records and we have implemented a new invoicing system and a
membership cancellation policy for non-payment.
As a result, our current membership numbers reflect only active paid members.
These numbers also will be the numbers that we will use in planning the House of Delegates (HOD) 2002 meetings.
State membership lists will be sent to each chapter with the November HOD mailing.
