AASRO is an association of organizations, not individuals. Membership follows the calendar year with annual dues paid by January 1st. Member organizations must meet certain criteria (listed in the by-laws) or must submit a petition in writing to the Executive Committee’s Membership Coordinator explaining what criteria they may not meet and why they should still be a member.
