How to Become a Member

Becoming a Member of NALMA

First Nations belonging to their respective Regional Lands Association are automatically members of NALMA. A membership fee may be required to join your Regional Lands Association. Membership fees vary from region to region.

Associate Memberships:

  • Where no Regional Lands Association exists, First National Lands Managers may apply for a one-time cost of $150.00
  • If you are not a First Nation Lands Manager, but have an interest in Land Management and share similar values and goals as our organization, you may apply for an annual cost of $150.00

The NALMA Board has placed a high priority on the establishment and continued support of the Regional Lands Associations. In essence, the Regional Lands Associations constitute the structure of NALMA. The National Aboriginal Lands Managers Association, together with the Regional Lands Association share the same goals and objectives.
