All About Membership at SSPN
Active members will receive monthly newsletters with opportunities for networking, philanthropic involvement, resume building, pediatric education resources, and leadership development opportunities through our workshops and events. Active members will be given the opportunity to run for a position on the SSPN Board and will be awarded membership points for attending SSPN events.
Those who accrue ten points or more by graduation will graduate with an SSPN cord. Points are earned by attending our events with an average point-value of one point awarded for each hour of an event. Membership is open to nursing students only. To join, please scroll down on this page to pay the one-time $20 membership fee. After you have paid, click "Join Now" and fill out the short form so that we have your information. Completion of these two steps allows you to enjoy all the perks of membership!
