Unified Membership Structure

The Colorado Association of School Nurses (CASN) encourages all school nurses to join!  CASN is an affiliate organization of the National Association of School Nurses, Inc. (NASN).  When you join, you are a member of CASN and NASN with full benefits in both organizations.  Membership dues are collected and managed at NASN national headquarters.

Together we can represent a strong, united effort.

Together we can be recognized and heard.

CASN and NASN are the only state and national organizations that serve Colorado school nurses and school nursing exclusively. Membership in your state and national professional organization is important to help promote and improve the practice of school nursing in Colorado.

Membership in your professional organization gives you an opportunity to meet and network with other school nurses in Colorado. It also gives you a voice in issues that impact school nurses and the students we serve.
