The build question
Could your chapter run a simpler site and directory?
A membership platform may handle important dues and records. Start by separating the public site and directory from the functions that should stay with the current system.

Bring one workflow or software bill to a free 30-minute consultation. We’ll discuss whether coding AI and affordable hosting could fit, and what it would take to own and maintain the result.
Practical guidance, not a promise of a cheap or maintenance-free replacement.
