NPDA Chapters
In addition to membership at the national level, NPDA also offers the opportunity to be involved at the state level through membership in chapters. Chapter membership provides an additional level of information and experience that is more state-specific. Through collaboration with other NPDA members throughout the state, chapters provide opportunities for leadership, networking, education and advocacy.
NPDA currently has 24 chapters representing 22 states. To learn more about joining an NPDA Chapter please contact the NPDA Chapter President in your area or NPDA Chapter Liaison Kevin Smith.
