The NFI supports the creation of NFI Chapters that represent and support NFI members within a geographical area. At a minimum there must be a sponsoring NIDCAP Training Center, a NIDCAP trainer and at least 8 NFI members to apply for approval to create a new chapter. They must of course support and advance the mission and goals of the NFI and abide by NFI by-laws. There is an application and review process for establishing a chapter and those who might be interested in pursuing the creation of a chapter are encouraged to contact the President of the NFI for guidance and to discuss the process.
