NEW - Special
Electronic Membership

This new level of membership provides all the same services as our regular membership except the Journal of Practical Nursing is sent as an electronic document.  That is, electronic members will not have JPN mailed to their homes as a printed magazine.  This saves the association a great deal of money and we're passing the savings on to the new members.  e-Members will be able to read and print the JPN from a members only area on our site.

Pricing:
Members             $35.00
Students              $10.00
