You are welcome to attend any JNO event around the country.  

What if I don't live near an event?
You can still take advantage of joining or renewing your membership and receiving a discount during Membership Month in September.  

What is Membership Month?
Membership Month is WJA’s member-appreciation program. From September 1-30th save 10% on new and renewing memberships all month long.

What precautions are being taken at JNO in 2021 to prevent the spread of COVID-19?
WJA is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for all event participants. As a preventative measure to reduce the potential spread of COVID-19 at our in-person events, all JNO attendees are required to acknowledge WJA's Duty of Care policy when they register online.
 
All venues for in-person chapter events are required to follow current CDC, state, and city health guidelines.
 
If you are not comfortable attending in-person, WJA is continuing to offer virtual programs throughout the year, including a community-wide virtual membership event on Thursday, September 22nd.
