Questions
How does renewal work?
Memberships run for one year from the day you join and are renewed manually. Nothing is charged automatically; you will get a reminder when your year is up.
Which level should I choose?
Supporter is the standard level. Choose Contributor if the Supporter rate is out of reach; choose Benefactor if you would like to cover a membership for someone who cannot pay it. All three levels include the same benefits.
Do I need to be a therapist or scientist?
No. GAINS members include therapists, educators, leaders, coaches, researchers, artists, parents, and anyone interested in a scientifically grounded view of how minds, brains, and relationships shape each other.
Is there a free way to take part?
Yes. Free online events, a set of free videos, the public practitioner directory, and the GAINS newsletter are open to everyone. The full video library, live Q&A, forums, and members-only directories require membership.
Where does my membership fee go?
GAINS is a nonprofit. Member dues go directly back into supporting IPNB advocacy and the programs above.
Ready to join?
Membership from $35/year. One year, renewed manually, every benefit included.
