MEMBERSHIP OVERVIEW
• NAWBO Membership is open to individual business owners who own an equity interest and actively participate as a sole proprietor; an active partner of a partnership or active member of a limited liability company; and independent contractor; or individual owners of 5 percent or more of the stock of a corporation and who are involved in policy–making and day–to–day management of the corporation.

• Members must join both the national organization and a local chapter. NAWBO has chapters in most metropolitan areas. If there is a chapter within 45 miles of your home or business location, you must become a member of that chapter. If there is not a chapter in your area, you can join NAWBO as an At–Large member.

• A NAWBO membership is recorded in the name of the individual, not the organization.

• A new member’s join date is the first day of the month NAWBO National receives payment.

• Membership dues are nonrefundable and are subject to change. A member may submit a written resignation to rescind their membership, but no portion of dues will be refunded.
