Research Center Membership
The IASSID Council established the Research Center membership to encourage
the participation of employee-based research centers and related organizations
in the Association. This type of membership is designed to increase direct communication
between the IASSID and scientists and scholars who are involved in the scientific
aspects of intellectual disabilities.
The IASSID maintains the Research Center membership category to encourage the
participation of research institutes, programs and centres in the Association's
activities. The benefits of membership include:
involvement
on NGO (non-governmental organizational) activities with the World Health
Organization, United Nations and other disability-related international bodies
subscription
to the IASSID Newsletter and postings on the IASSID international website
in 2005

subscription to the Journal of Policy and Practice in Intellectual Disabilities
dedicated
listserv for research and funding interests
reduced
group registration fees for IASSID-associated meetings (some restrictions
apply)

networking among research centres

individual membership
Membership
Membership is open to all employee-based research institutes, foundations,
programs and centers involved in training/ education, basic and applied research,
practice and social/health work, and public policy and advocacy involving intellectual
and developmental disabilities.
Fees during 2005-2006 are US $125 per year or $245 for two years.
Research centers are eligible to designate an "individual member"
to IASSID at no extra cost. The "designated member" has the same privileges
to membership within IASSID as a FULL member ("FU" category).
Designated members may be appointed to IASSID Council, participate in the leadership
of SIRGS, and receive discounts and other member benefits. Designated members
may also enter a subscription to JIDR -- in their name -- for an additional
annual payment of US$65. To enter a subscription to JIDR, enclose the additional
payment at the time of the Research Center payment, either via email, fax or
post. On-line payments can be made by indicating the JIDR option button below.
