Your return on investment will exceed your expectations! NENA membership is based on the calendar year and all memberships expire December 31 of the year joined unless payment is received after October 1, in which case your membership will be valid through December 31 of the following year. All members automatically become members of their local NENA chapter if one exists (10% of dues paid goes to support your local chapter).
