NASP Interest Groups

NASP Interest Groups bring together NASP members from around the world who share common areas of expertise and concern. Visit the NASP Communities to engage with fellow members by posing questions, sharing experience and insight, and seeking new perspectives.

Most Interest Groups hold an annual meeting at the Annual Convention. Interest Group activities are open to NASP members.

For more information on a particular group or practice area, contact the respective Interest Group Coordinator.

For information on developing a new Interest Group, contact communities@naspweb.org.
