Q. What does membership in SMD Alliance involve?

A. As a member of SMD Alliance, your level of participation is – for the most part – up to you. You can put in as much time as your schedule and energy allows.

One of the key benefits of being a member is your entitlement to vote at SMD Alliance meetings. With your vote, you can help define the focus and set the priorities for the entire SMD Family of organizations. At the same time, you contribute to the ongoing development of SMD’s vision for “a community that supports the independence, participation and empowerment of people with disabilities.”

Q. What are the criteria for membership in SMD Alliance?

A. The main criteria for becoming a member of SMD Alliance is that you have to have a direct connection to an SMD service or program as either a consumer or a relative/friend of a consumer. This connection provides SMD Alliance with a unique understanding and perspective on disability issues – the perspective of people with disabilities themselves.
