NCDCDT Membership Drive 2008-2009:
Our goal is to increase our membership by 10%.  One way to exceed this goal is by every member recruiting a new member. 

Why?  If our organization is growing, we can improve post-secondary outcomes of students with a disability by professional growth and information dissemination.

A second way to reach our membership goal is “One New CEC/DCDT Member per School System!”
