Need Help?

VAHPA is a democratic community of Allied Health Professionals. We are entirely self-resourced, which means all the work we do is paid for by member contributions.

Having said that, we understand that many Allied Health Professionals are not yet VAHPA members. If you need assistance but aren’t yet a member, don’t hesitate to make contact. We are always happy to talk and offer general advice and limited assistance.

If you are not yet a VAHPA member, you can join here.
