NSPRA appreciates the efforts of chapter leaders who are dedicated to advancing the practice of school public relations and communication and supporting the professional needs of our members at the state level.

NSPRA convenes a meeting for incoming chapter officers and committee leaders at the NSPRA Seminar each year to provide updates and information needed to plan for the coming year. Some additional professional development is also offered. This meeting is held Sunday morning on the first official day of the Seminar.
