2025 NCOA Membership Focus

We’re aiming high this year: 2025 new members by the end of 2025! It might seem like a big goal, but if each NCOA member signs up just one new person, we can hit that number faster than you’d think. Every month, we’ll update you on our progress so you can see the difference we’re making together.

No matter if you’re assigned to a chapter, a new member, or a Life member, we need you in this effort. As the saying goes, “many hands make light work.” By adding more voices, we’ll strengthen our representation of the total force and show what we can accomplish when we unite.

Ready to help? Recruit one new member and become a part of this campaign. Let’s make 2025 the year we show the true power of the NCOA—one member at a time.

You’d be surprised by how willing people are to help, especially when it comes to doing something good. The trick to getting these individuals on your team is to simply ask. This is often the same when signing up new members; Simply ask!

Follow us on social media where more information on this campaign will be posted.

ONE MEMBER AT A TIME - EACH ONE, REACH ONE!

Start an NCOA Chapter in Your Area

It only takes 5 dedicated paid members to launch a new chapter. Here’s how:

1. Contact Headquarters and request a Chapter Starter Kit.
2. Request a Zip Code Roster for your area to identify any current members.
3. Identify a Bank for your chapter’s finances.
4. Reach Out for Guidance on the nearest chapter or a Knight in your area who can help.

Remember, membership is the lifeblood of the NCOA. The more members we have, the stronger our voice in Washington and the greater our impact in local communities.

Believe in your association and chapter—talk it up!
There is Strength in Unity and in Numbers.
