Why your membership matters

📄

We negotiate your contract

CODAA bargains the agreement that sets your pay, health benefits, evaluation process, and working conditions. That contract exists because members fund the work.

📢

We are the adjunct voice

CODAA is the official voice of College of the Desert's part-time faculty — at the bargaining table, at Board of Trustees meetings, and in Sacramento.

🤝

Three memberships in one

Joining CODAA automatically makes you a member of CCA, CTA, and NEA — 3 million educators strong, with the legal muscle that comes with it.

⚖️

Fairness

Every adjunct benefits from the contract — but only members carry the cost of winning it. If you're not a member, your colleagues are paying your way.

$4.06

CODAA local dues per month —
the lowest local dues in California

What membership costs

CODAA local (goes to your COD chapter)*$4.06
CTA / NEA / CCA$30.12
Total$34.18 deducted monthly**

*lowest in the state  ·  **only while school is in session

That's about a dollar a day while classes run — and the member discounts (insurance, travel, retail) can offset the cost of membership all by themselves.

Membership pays you back

Members automatically receive the CTA Death & Dismemberment Plan, NEA Complimentary Life Insurance, access to the CTA Disaster Relief Fund, and more — plus exclusive discounts on insurance, credit programs, travel, and shopping through CTA Member Benefits and NEA Member Benefits. See the full rundown on our Member Benefits page.

Ready? Ten minutes. $4.06. All of us, stronger.
