About NSPRA
Become a Member
The National School Public Relations Association has 34 officially chartered chapters representing school PR professionals in individual states and multi-state regions across the United States, U.S. territories and Canada. Chapters process their memberships separately from NSPRA, but dual membership in NSPRA and your local chapter has its benefits!
Chapters offer their members state-level learning opportunities and supports, often through webinars, conferences, listservs, awards programs and networking events. Their affiliation with NSPRA provides nonprofit status and dedicated training opportunities and support for chapter officers. NSPRA members are not required to join their local chapters, but many do so to access local professional development opportunities.
