In an effort to better serve you as a member of the National Press Photographers Association, as well as to advance the profession of visual journalism, the NPPA is currently undergoing a strategic planning process. This strategic plan will be put in place to identify the NPPA's priorities and strategic directions for the next three years.

One of the most critical pieces of strategic planning for an organization like ours is member feedback. In order to best plan our future we need to know who you are, what you need as a professional, your opinions about the association and your insight on the state of visual journalism.

The NPPA would like to invite you to participate in this online survey aimed at helping us answer all of those questions. As a valued member of the NPPA, your input is very important to our planning process. The survey should take about 12 minutes to complete.

Upon completing the survey, your e-mail (if you wish to give it) will be entered into a drawing for one free registration to our annual meeting in 2008 being held in Louisville, Kentucky or one of three free equipment prizes.

Your privacy is important to us. We will not track replies from this survey. Your entry will in no way be tied to your responses.
