Membership Benefits

Members and Associate Members of the Naples Council on World Affairs are entitled to:

• Attend feature presentations during the November to April season (Full Members only).
• View videos of lectures on the website.
• President's Club members may attend luncheons with speakers (Full Members only).
• Sign up for Great Decisions (weekly small group discussions mid-January to mid-March).
  
• Receive invitations to additional lectures and special events.
• Join the book club with a selection of books matching the lecture series and Great Decisions topics.
  
• Enjoy publication discounts and travel benefits with the World Affairs Councils of America (WACA).

Current membership fees are $125 for an Individual or $225 for a Family (two persons at the same address). Membership is limited by the size of the lecture hall and is currently full.

Those wanting to become members are invited to join as Associate Members ($35 for an Individual, $50 for a Family). Associate Members may not attend feature lectures but are eligible for most other NCWA programs and will automatically become Full Members in the order of their original application date as openings occur*. Currently the waiting time is approximately one year.

 *Associate Membership - The intent of the Associate Member program is that Associate Members will become Full Members once space in the lecture hall is available and they receive an invitation from NCWA to become Full Members. Their Associate Membership will not be continued beyond this point; this includes participation in activities such as Great Decisions.
