The Members Only page is a private resource area for approved MAORCA members. It is designed to support collaboration, information sharing, and professional development across the Mid-Atlantic organized retail crime community.

Approved members currently have access to the following sections:

• Members Home
  Central landing page with updates, guidance, and navigation to all member resources.

• Investigator Tools
  Practical tools and resources used in investigations, including templates, references, and workflows.

• OSINT Tools
  Open-source intelligence tools and links commonly used for research, identification, and digital investigations.

• Judicial Tools & Case Support
  State specific statutes that can be used in ORC investigations and links to statewide case searches.

• Other Resources
  Additional tools, links, and references that do not fall into a single category but provide investigative value.

• Investigator Contact List
  A member-only directory to support collaboration, networking, and cross-jurisdiction communication.

Content is periodically updated and expanded.

Access is limited to:

• Approved MAORCA members

• Individuals whose work email address is added to the official MAORCA Group

If your email is not part of the MAORCA Google Group, you will not be able to access the page.

To access the page:

1. Make sure you are an approved MAORCA member.

2. Sign in to Google using the same work email address you used when registering for MAORCA.

3. While signed in, navigate to the MAORCA Members Only page.

If you are signed into a different Google account, including a personal account, access will be denied.

Yes.
Access is controlled through Google authentication tied to the MAORCA Google Group. You must be logged into Google using your approved work email address to view the Members Only page.

It is also helpful to be using Chrome browser.

No. Personal email addresses are not permitted for access.

Here is why:

• MAORCA membership is organization-based, not individual-based.

• Work email addresses help verify professional affiliation and eligibility.

• Using work emails protects sensitive information shared among members.

• Access is automatically managed through the MAORCA Google Group, which requires approved work domains.

This approach ensures trust, accountability, and proper handling of member-only information.

Common issues include:

• You are logged into a different Google account than your MAORCA-approved email.

• Your work email has not yet been added to the MAORCA Google Group.

• You recently joined and access has not been provisioned yet.

• Your organization may BLOCK Google sites. You may try signing off your organizations network/VPN and try from a public or personal wifi.

Try signing out of all Google accounts, then signing back in using only your MAORCA-approved work email.
