How Group Membership Works

Fill out our group membership application, create a spreadsheet or list with the the first name, last name, and email address for all individuals to be covered, and send both to admin@okpublichealth.org. Do not send payment with application.
Hear back from OPHA staff that your application was approved and receive an invoice for payment.
Submit your payment online, by mailed check, or EFT/ACH (preferred).
Confirm with your members and OPHA staff that all memberships are activate.
Encourage your members to become engaged!
Renew annually! OPHA staff will contact your organization's primary contact when it's time to renew your group membership.
