What is an NASN Affiliate?

An Affiliate is a State/U.S. Territory school nurse organization OR a school nurse group comprised of registered professional school nurse members serving schools outside the U.S.  Affiliates must be approved by the NASN Executive Committee or Board of Directors and pay Affiliation Dues annually.  There may be only one school nurse organization Affiliate per state.  Each Affiliate has a seat on the NASN Board of Directors.  The person holding this seat is referred to as the NASN Director.

What is an NASN Unified Affiliate?

Unified Affiliates are those Affiliates that have agreed that eligible members must belong to both the Affiliate and National organizations.  Additional benefits may accrue to Unified Affiliates that are not available to all Affiliates.  More than half of NASN's Affiliates are Unified.
