Advocacy
Illinois NATOA was intended to be accessible to any community in Illinois. Whether it be negotiating with a cable operator or delivering messages to the federal government, our chapter of NATOA is connected with people that can deliver for you.
Our dues are budget-friendly. We don’t have a big office suite or a large staff, so we don’t have huge expenses. For less than $100/year, your community can be a member, and have access to our telecommunications expertise, networking, and ideas.
