Member Benefits
According to an old adage, the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Indeed, as an OAND member, not only will you enjoy exclusive access to the association’s various programs and resources, but you will also join a dynamic community of NDs committed to championing the naturopathic profession and its countless benefits in Ontario. Remember, the OAND is YOUR association, and your membership in the OAND will benefit the profession just as much as the OAND will benefit you!

- Strengthen the association’s ability to work effectively with government and stakeholders in order to represent the profession on issues that matter – get involved in the OAND’s outreach and advocacy initiatives.
- Join the growing community of NDs in Ontario – keep in touch with other ND’s through various communications: our eConnect newsletter, quarterly magazine the PULSE, and OAND Discussion Boards.

- Gain access to one-stop business resources for you and your practice – get access to clinic and marketing resources with your membership through the Members Only section of the OAND website.
