Important Notice
Given the current economic climate and need to maintain the high level of benefits our members have come to expect from NAHN, a new membership dues structure will go into effect on January 1, 2024. General and affiliate members will see a $25 increase, with $20 going to NAHN National and $5 going to chapters.
The increased dues will help NAHN continue to offer annual benefits valued at over $500 per year, including advocacy for nurse's rights and patients; over 40 hours of free or discounted continuing nursing education; a quarterly printed journal; tuition discounts at partner universities; student scholarships; discounted registration to the annual conference and policy summit; networking through local chapters; and more!
NAHN members who expire on or before 5/31/24 can renew at the current rate until 12/31/23. If you have any questions, please contact our office at info@thehispanicnurses.org or 859-469-5800.
