PAHA MEMBERSHIP 

Membership in the Polish American Historical Association is open to anyone with an interest in ethnic studies or the Polish experience in America. Members are eligible to vote or run for office, serve on committees, and participate in the annual meetings. Members receive our newsletter, the biannual scholarly journal Polish American Studies, and discounts on PAHA publications. Membership levels include: individual, family, institutional, and student/senior. PAHA also occasionally grants Honorary Membership to the most distinguished scholars.

Please note that since 2013 our Journal (Polish American Studies) has been published by the University of Illinois Press and, therefore, the UIP also manages our membership dues. The link below will take you to the UIP site - you may use it to join PAHA and to subscribe to the Polish American Studies, since it is the same thing.
