AOEC clinic members have the opportunity to participate in the shared databases and to compete for awards to conduct collaborative research and develop new educational materials. The AOEC office receives calls on a daily basis from prospective clients and health agencies. The AOEC policy is to direct such referral calls only to AOEC member clinics. Clinic members elect five of the nine members of the Board of Directors. Payment of dues is not necessary until the clinic has been formally accepted by the Board of Directors.
Dues are for the current calendar year.
Those people joining in the last quarter of the calendar year are enrolled immediately but credited for the next year. To join, please either request a brochure from this e-mail address or you may send a check or money order to AOEC at the address below. Individual members may participate in all AOEC meetings and conferences and may serve on the Board of Directors. Individual members elect four members of the Board of Directors. We also have a number of committees which would benefit from your participation including Membership, Grants and Contracts, Outreach, Nomination, Quality Assurance, Data Base, and Internal Communication.
