Membership Statistics
Each month we will publish three documents showing current membership statistics.

- Membership Totals by Department is a graph chart that shows both national and department totals month over month.
- Demographic Totals is an Excel spreadsheet that shows chapter and department totals, broken down by age, grade, branch, and membership type.
