In the coming months, the NPA plans to extend member benefits to all individuals affiliated with sustaining member institutions. The benefits will include access to members-only content on the NPA website, subscriptions to NPA publications, and eligibility to participate in NPA committees and other member activities. We are in the process of re-programming our website and databases to accommodate this change. Look for further announcements in Spring 2006.
