As I’ve probably mentioned before, I’m a member of the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners, also known as NAPNAP. It has been the ideal professional home for me because it provides a community of pediatric-focused nurse practitioners to engage with and continuing education that has enhanced my practice. As we continue to innovate how we practice and/or educate or precept the next generation of NPs, I truly believe that benefits and services that NAPNAP offers will be very valuable. I recommend you join me in NAPNAP’s community of experts in pediatrics and advocates for children.

Learn more about NAPNAP membership and feel free to ask me questions about my experience. When you join, please include my name in the referred by field. I’m participating in the current Better Together campaign. Now is a particularly advantageous time to join because NAPNAP members have free access to NAPNAP Cares, an innovative mental health continuing education collective to enhance your practice. Additionally, registration for NAPNAP’s national conference opens in mid-October and members are privy to an exclusive registration rate.

Follow the tips below to maximize the likelihood that the individuals that you speak to will join:

1. Identify the best prospects – Review your network of professional colleagues and identify those who could benefit most from NAPNAP membership. Remember, NAPNAP is the home to all PNPs and FNPs who treat children. When meeting new individuals, consider asking whether or not they are a member of NAPNAP. If not, utilize the tools below to tell them about the organization.
2. Know the benefits of membership – NAPNAP provides an array of valuable resources to members. The more familiar you are with the benefits, the better equipped you will be to discuss them with your colleagues. Try to remember why you first joined and how you have come to value new benefits as your career has progressed. Our membership page also includes a layout of the benefits we offer to our members.
3. Give examples – Provide your colleagues with examples of how your NAPNAP membership has benefited you in your career. A positive testimonial can be one of the strongest tools when recruiting new members.
4. Focus on their needs – Each individual has different needs regarding their professional development. Ask questions about their professional goals and what information they are looking for. Based on their answers, identify and highlight the benefits that will be of greatest value to them.
5. Close with a plan of action – After discussing the value of membership and your experience, encourage your colleague to choose NAPNAP as their professional home. By referring them to the NAPNAP website, they can get more information about the association. Your colleague can also email info@napnap.org for personalized assistance.
6. Follow up – Check back in a few days to inquire about whether or not they’ve joined and ask if they have any additional questions. If they haven’t already joined, this follow-up can serve as a reminder for them to do so.
7. Continue to help – Now that they have joined NAPNAP, encourage your colleague to explore their new member benefits and check out all NAPNAP has to offer. Don’t forget to thank them for strenghtening your professional home!
