I researched the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM). I found my information at http://www.nctm.org but you may also learn more from their twitter, @NCTM. Full membership costs $90 a year but it costs an additional $27 for their research journal. Student e-membership is $45 per year or $60 with the research journal. Members receive access to the latest research and exclusive resources. Additionally, there are over 70,000 math educators connected in the network. The closest conference geographically is this November in Minneapolis.
I also researched the Michigan Council of Teachers of Mathematics. I found my information at http://www.mictm.org. They are not on twitter or instagram and their facebook page appears to get very little attention as it only has 16 likes and I didn't see any posts. Membership costs $35 or $17.50 and connects teachers with strategies and practices directly related to teaching mathematics in Michigan. Their publications are limited to their newsletter and a workbook. They are having a conference in Macomb, Michigan Monday, the 28th. Furthermore, their website is difficult to navigate and seems like it could use a great deal of maintenance.
