What are my benefits of joining Opportunities for Canadians (OCI)? How do I connect with other members? What can I do now that I am a member? What are the committee options? Who can I contact with questions? What events are happening this year? Can you tell us a bit about the Research Program? Can you tell us a bit about potential future dissemination we will be doing? What are Local Chapters? What is the forum structure?
