(HOSA understands the challenges created by adjustments in rates as well as the hard work and investment that goes into conference attendance, which is why an increase has been avoided for as long as possible. However, it is believed these changes will result in positive impact to continue HOSA’s permanence as a viable student organization and create the opportunity to make necessary investments into HOSA’s offerings that will enhance the membership experience for all members)
