The A la Carte is the ORA's e-News publication. Members receive 9 e-News per year summarizing top-priority news, grassroots initiatives, and important advocacy issues, as well as details of timely training and educational opportunities, events, new member programs and other important news.

The e-News is distributed to over 2,000 industry professionals statewide and is our prime source for dispersing time-sensitive information. Exclusive Partnership, if available to members.
