Membership & Donations

As a member or with a donation, you strengthen education, community and research, and help people affected to be heard sooner. Your contribution makes a difference.

Why become a member

Your contribution connects and makes a difference

Symbolic image of solidarity: many people standing together, connected by a shared ribbon

Every membership and every donation makes the network larger and stronger. Together we make sure that people affected are heard and that financial barriers keep no one from an assessment.

🫂

Community

Become part of a community that meets as equals: exchange, solidarity and the feeling of being taken seriously with your own symptoms.

🎓

Academy

Benefit from the growing knowledge of the members' academy: easy-to-understand information, events and shared experience.

🌱

Impact

Your contribution goes towards education, research and the support fund, and reaches people who would otherwise find no answer.

Membership

Membership fee levels

The principle in one sentence: The annual fee roughly corresponds to the price of a one-day course in your professional group: 1 course is included, plus 30 % off all further training courses. As a rule, membership therefore pays for itself with your very first course.

Choose the level that suits you. Every contribution strengthens the network.

By ruling of the Cantonal Tax Administration of Schwyz dated 4 December 2025, the association is recognised as non-profit and exempt from tax. You can therefore deduct donations in your tax return (§ 33 Abs. 2 Bst. c StG SZ; Art. 33a DBG); the deductible amount depends on your canton of residence. On request, we will issue a donation receipt. With the reference “Unterstützungsfonds” (support fund), your donation goes specifically to the fund.

Particularly effective

The support fund helps people who could not otherwise afford an interdisciplinary assessment.

With a targeted contribution to the fund, you help make sure that financial barriers keep no one from an assessment. Simply add the keyword “Unterstützungsfonds” to your transfer, or select the fund in the form.
