## About

NC IDA is a professional membership organization for dentists of Indian
heritage practicing in North Carolina, and for the dental students, hygienists,
assistants, and industry partners who serve the community alongside them.

We host in-person gatherings across the Triangle, publish a member
newsletter, curate a resource directory (CE, licensing, practice
resources, member discounts), and provide a members-only area with
tools and content for dues-paying members.

## Membership

Two ways to join at https://ncida.org/membership:

- **Card payment** via Stripe (annual dues, auto-renewing)
- **Zelle or check** via the manual application form (board processes and confirms)

Dues fund events, the site, and organizational operations.

## Events

Upcoming and past events are listed at https://ncida.org/events. Recent
gatherings include networking receptions and cultural celebrations
across Raleigh, Durham, and Apex. Each event has its own detail page
with venue, RSVP link, sponsor thanks, and (post-event) a recap and
photo gallery.

## Newsletter

Members and interested professionals can read the newsletter archive
at https://ncida.org/newsletter — periodic updates on the community,
recent events, and profession news.

## Members-only resources
