Quick Links and Notes
Membership Application
Membership Upgrade Form

Thank you for your interest in becoming a current USHPA member. New members will need to provide an approved Membership Application form, original signed copy of the most recent USHPA Release, Waiver and Assumption of Risk Agreement, with fully paid annual membership dues.

Current active members may renew online by clicking here and then clicking the Renew Online button. Members renewing this way do not need to submit an original signed copy of the USHPA Release, Waiver and Assumption of Risk Agreement, instead they will electronically sign the waiver during the online renewal process.

If your membership has expired, you may renew by submitting the application and waiver by mail, email, or fax.

You may acquire a Membership Application and Waiver Form online (Adobe PDF) or you may call the USHPA National Headquarters at toll free 1-800-616-6888 or 1-719-632-8300. The USHPA staff will be happy to mail, email, or fax these forms to you. Once you have completed the application, signed the waiver and included your membership dues, simply send it to the USHPA office at:
