We get a lot of questions about membership, and we know that the Bylaws can be A LOT. After all, we didn’t just have to read the thing, we had to write it.

So we wanted to break down the core of what it means to be a member of the League. Because when you strip away all the legalese any membership agreement comes down to two things:



What You Get & What You Give 

So here we go.


What You Get

  • Invites to LEIA Member-Only parties & mixers

What You Give

You agree to the LEIA Code of Conduct and provide at least one (1) of the following:


  • Five hours of service to LEIA (staffing, admin, facilitation*)
  • Committee Membership
  • Alternative Dues**

That’s it in a nutshell. While there are details galore — and you can read a lot of them — this is what it breaks down to for members.

Of course, there are those who are interested in serving in a greater capacity - be that as a Committee Member, Leader, or as part of the Board of Governors. What follows is for those interested in that level of organizing.
