About the Texas Rehabilitation Association

Our Mission: The Texas Rehabilitation Association is a nonprofit organization of people who are dedicated to: • promoting to the public the profession of rehabilitation • enhancing opportunities for Texans with disabilities • stimulating a rehabilitation environment • promoting quality rehabilitation services by organizations and individuals.

When you join TRA through our national association (NRA), your dues pay for national, regional, state, and local membership. There are 3 membership categories: Member, Organization, and Student. TRA members are encouraged to participate at all levels of the organization. Being an active member brings the opportunity to develop yourself as a professional, to network with other members, and develop long-term relationships which can benefit not only the people you serve, but yourself as well. Members who attend training activities will receive a membership rate.

If you are student, TRA wants you to join us at a $20 year student membership rate. We want to encourage you, as a student, to view rehabilitation as a rewarding career opportunity by developing relationships with our members who are working in the profession and by participating in training and local activities to develop skills as you prepare for work.

The Texas Rehabilitation Association offers opportunities to recognize individuals and organizations that have provided outstanding contribution to the Rehabilitation community.
