Frequently Asked Questions
InterAction’s new Member Portal provides added benefits and is a resource repository for Member staff. The Member Portal does not replace any preexisting InterAction offerings.
However, the Portal provides our Members the opportunity to connect with community members, sign up for exclusive events, share resources, and stay up to date on the latest InterAction and sector offerings.
Member staff who are already involved in working groups do not need to register for the Member Portal to continue engaging with those groups. However, you will need to create an account if you would like to register for new working groups.
You must be associated with a current InterAction Member organization to sign up for the Member Portal.
To sign up for the Member Portal:
Select "Sign Up" in the right corner of the main page.
Enter your first and last name, organization, title, member organization email, and a password.
If accepted, you will receive a confirmation email.
Unfortunately, we do not offer Member Portal access to individuals who are not associated with current Member organizations. If you would like to learn more about applying for membership in InterAction, please contact membership@interaction.org.
Once you have registered for the Member Portal, please visit the "Working Groups" page and select the "Working Groups Sign Up" tab.
Please complete the sign up form using your Member organization email address. You will receive a confirmation email when your request has been approved.
You should not register again for a working group that you are already active in. You will continue to receive all communication regardless of your Member Portal status.
If you would like to join the discussion groups that correspond to your active working groups, you may do so on the Member Portal. However, you do not have to sign up for discussion groups to participate in working groups.
Please note that you must create an account on the Member Portal and submit a request on the Working Group Sign Up page to register for new working groups.
You must be a staff member at a pre-approved (I)NGO Forum to join a specified working group. Please do not attempt to sign up for the InterAction Member Portal. To gain access to your pre-approved working group, please email membership@interaction.org.
All InterAction events will be listed under the "Events" tab.
We frequently offer hybrid opportunities for trainings, networking events, and conferences. Please check your email regularly for InterAction event opportunities.

As noted during the registration process, recovering login information can be difficult. Please record your login information in multiple places. Our staff may need to remove your account and ask you to register again.
