association
(redirected from CHARGE association)

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Financial, Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

association n. any group of people who have joined together for a particular purpose, ranging from social to business, and usually meant to be a continuing organization. It can be formal, with rules and/or by-laws, membership requirements and other trappings of an organization, or it can be a collection of people without structure. An association is not a legally-established corporation or a partnership. To make this distinction the term "unincorporated association" is often used, although technically redundant.
