Benefits of Paying NTSPP Chapter Dues
Non-NTSPP Psychiatrists
Psychiatrists who are not members of APA and TSPP are welcome at events as space permits at the full dinner program price, usually $50 per 4th Thursday dinner meeting at present location.
Members in Training
Psychiatrists who are in training pay no chapter dues. However, PGYs who are members of APA and TSPP pay nothing for dinners while non-APA members pay $10 per $50 dinner, whenever the NTSPP Memorial and Honor Fund can subsidize dinners for PGYs. (Please see the Memorial and Honor Fund page for information on how to contribute).
Distinguished Life Fellows
Our valued Distinguished Life Fellows have two options: 1) Pay dues and receive discounted dinners, OR 2) Pay full price for dinner programs without paying dues, while retaining all other member privileges.
