EVERY MEMBER IS IMPORTANT

Regular Members:
Regular Members are individuals who share the goals of the Live Free or Die Alliance, support its mission, and provide a means to communicate with them. LFDA members, as a whole, will gather at least once each year at the Annual Meeting to elect the Trustees of the Live Free or Die Alliance Council and to receive reports on the affairs, operations, and other activities of the LFDA, presented by their fellow members. All members are encouraged to take an active part in the LFDA and will be kept completely informed of issues, developments, and events through our website.
