Overview

For organizations with chapters, it is valuable to manage this chapter structure, allow membership applications to be tied to a chapter, provide chapter-based public website content and manage member communication at the chapter level – all providing increased relevance to your members. The Chapters Module makes all of this happen.

Setup each chapter, including the chapter name, description, the calendar you’d like assigned to the chapter (allows ability to display relevant events) and a directory the chapter is aligned. Create a list/committee that is aligned to this chapter, which will allow individuals to receive communication related to the chapter.
