WSLHA promotes the highest professional standards and ethical practices and serves the individual and collective professional interests of the members of the association. WSLHA offers several different membership types to best meet the needs of each individual and professional. The mission of WSLHA is to act as the primary resource and advocate for its members and those they serve through legislation, continuing education, collaboration, professional endeavors, and publications.
A Federal Tax Law in 1993 designated that expenses for lobbying efforts are non-deductible. As a result, a portion of the dues you paid for WSLHA membership is non-deductible. In 2025, 41.5% is non-deductible.
WSLHA is constantly working to improve services to the members. Professionals are invited to participate in the planning of further services and benefits.
