Local Chapters

As a member of VNA, you have many opportunities to network, learn and develop your leadership skills. You belong to one chapter as a member, but are invited to participate in as many chapter meetings and events as you like. The choice is yours. Chapter membership creates opportunities to confer and network with nurses working in a common environment; take advantage of educational and social programs and grow your network.

In Spring of 2025, the position of Chapter President for every chapter, except Hampton Roads, will be open for passionate and driven individuals to self-nominate, ready to lead and make a lasting impact.

For more information, check out the VNA Board and Chapter Elections page.

If you have questions please feel free to contact the chapter's email, listed below, or reach out to VNA Membership Manager MJ Gearles.
