As a member of the LHSA, how do I log into the new site?

A:

Click on Membership, then My Account. Enter your email address and the passcode you received on May 8 in an email from LHSA.org. If you have joined since May 8, 2009, you received a passcode at the time you joined.
If the email address you are entering is not registered with the LHSA, you will not have access to the Membership area of the site. Try entering your previous email address.
If you have forgotten your passcode, click on the "Forgot your passcode?" link, enter your email, and a message will be sent to you which will allow you to reset your passcode.

How do I change my Directory listing so that other members can contact me?
|
A:
|
After you log in, under My Profile you will see the various boxes of information that can be checked so that your information is visible in the Directory. (The Directory is restricted to members only so is not on public view).
If you check the box that contains your email address, your actual email address will not be shown on the site. Rather, other members will see a button that reads "Send email to this member." If they wish to contact you, they will be asked to fill out a form with their name and email address. You will then receive an email from LHSA.org with the contact request.
