Membership

We are a membership-based organization, and rely on people power to incite change in our urban areas. Becoming a member takes a few steps. Here’s a quick outline of what needs to happen:

Any person may become a member based on the following criteria:

  • They must be sponsored by a current member;
  • They must pledge to uphold our purpose;
  • They must pledge to uphold our Covenant of Relations and Conflict of Interest policy;
  • They make a dues payment upon membership approval.

Each new member must also pledge to an existing lodge. If there is no lodge currently meeting in your home city, you must first join the main lodge (in Rochester, NY) and work with them to launch a new lodge.
