The purpose of the Ohio Chapter of the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners is to establish an association, which will assist the advanced practice provider who specializes in pediatrics, in improving the quality of health care for infants, children, adolescents, and young adults. Our organization accomplishes this through the promotion of role advancement, professional development, and advocacy on behalf of the profession.
Ohio Chapter membership affords you the opportunity to reap the benefits of both a state and national organization with one membership fee. The Ohio Chapter provides members of our state a vast number of opportunities for professional development, including:
- Awards (prestigious awards recognizing our members)
- Grants
- Scholarships
- Annual Statewide Conference and Awards Ceremony
- Newsletters
Our Chapter also provides service to the pediatric community through several programs, philanthropy endeavors, and other community engagement activities, including funding for bicycle helmets and donations at conferences and other events to support the betterment of children.
