Global Network of Neurofibromatosis Patient Organisations

Membership

We have different types of membership in NF Patients United. All members are entitled to attend all events of the association and to use all facilities of the association.

FULL MEMBERS are registered NPO patient organisations that work for people with NF on a national level. They can nominate candidates for the executive board. They have the right to vote. They can receive financial support for their national projects from NFPU.

ASSOCIATED MEMBERS are individuals who are working on setting up an NF organization in their home country or existing NF patient organisations that do not fulfill the criteria to become full members. Associated members can also be patient organisations, which do not fulfill the criteria to become a full member yet.

FRIENDS are individuals or organisations, who are interested in becoming full members or associated members. They get informed about the procedure and requirements to become full or associated members and are included in our communication.
