Membership options

AHHA offers a range of membership types, which support different levels of engagement with the Association. If you are not sure which membership type suits you, please contact secretariat@ahha.asn.au. 

• Full membership: Available to both organisations and individuals, this provides the opportunity to closely engage with the activities of the Association. Full membership includes representation on the AHHA Council, the governing body which elects the board and sets the strategic direction for the AHHA and includes the opportunity to be closely involved with the development of submissions to government and other advocacy activities.
• Supporter membership: Provides discounted access to events and training for organisations including free access to webinars, job ads and event listings. Supporter members are less involved with the day to day work and advocacy of the AHHA.
