What is an Affiliated Local CRN Chapter?
Local CRN Chapters are affiliated with the National CRN and the National Kidney Foundation, and often provide education and programs to meet the needs of their specific communities and professional members. The Council of Renal Nutrition, whose membership and chapters are represented by the CRN Executive Committee, is a professional council of the National Kidney Foundation and serves in an advisory capacity to the Foundation. Local CRN Chapters complete an affiliation application with the National CRN and the National Kidney Foundation when they are chartered and then every other year following.
What is the difference between National CRN membership and Local Chapter Membership?
Affiliated local CRN chapters may maintain their own local chapter membership requirements and lists. Membership in a local chapter does not give a person membership in the National CRN.
Furthermore, national membership does not automatically give a person membership to the local chapters. However, some local chapters reduce dues for national members. Local chapters should ensure that members are aware of the differences between local membership and national membership.
