DDNA offers many opportunities for you to get together with other DD nurses in your area to network, share, and participate in educational programs. We have Chapters and Networks in many states. To find one near you, click on your state. If there is a Chapter or Network available, click on the link to access their most current information. You will notice that some states have no current chapter. If you are interested in starting a Chapter in your state, or if there is already a Chapter or Network in your state, but it is not geographically convenient for you and other DD nurses in your area, we encourage you to contact DDNA and we would be delighted to help you start a new Chapter.
If you have news or information about your Chapter and you have a website provided by DDNA, please select a website administrator for your chapter. The administrator may update your Chapter's website at any time. Updating is as simple as typing the information into your Chapter website page. It takes just a few minutes to learn how to be a Chapter website administrator. Please call the DDNA office for a quick how-to-update lesson at your convenience.
If you already have a Chapter website, we will also provide a link to your current website.
We encourage you to keep you Chapter's current contact information up-to-date. We ask that you update your chapter information at least quarterly.
