NKF Local Chapter Program

Local chapters may exist to support ongoing local growth and engagement aligned with NKF’s priorities set forth by the NKF Senior Leadership Team. The objective of a local chapter is to increase support, partnerships, education, and collaboration as we work toward our shared mission of improving the care and health of kidney patients.

In consideration of applying to be an affiliated local chapter, please consider whether you can support the following: 

• Commitment to implementing programming to advance kidney education and care at the community level
• Volunteer availability and drive for leading a local professional group
• A network of local professionals looking for connection and willing to dedicate time
• Positive representation of national NKF Professional Membership
• Full support of NKF Local Chapter Policies and committed to operating accordingly

When the above are evident, groups will be invited to complete the affiliation application and affirm commitment to active engagement for a two-year period.
