We recently heard from the team at Grouper that over 260 members (over the age of 65 who have Medicare Advantage or Benefit plans) received dues reimbursement checks returning over $22,000 to our members.

The fall is a perfect time of year to begin or expand your family history research. We've added new and updated free Family History Month resources for individuals and organizations.
Look for refreshed PDFs on how you can record, scan, write, and share your family
stories. Use them to ease into your own projects or as a resource your genealogy
organization can share to inspire more people to begin or restart their family history
journey. This year we also included a new PDFs on joining and participating in NGS and other genealogy societies and organizations.
You can also find downloadable social media graphics for you to use freely. Organizations can insert their own logos (clear backgrounds only please; no logos on white backgrounds) onto all documents as necessary.
