The North American Chapter of the ISSVD offers a unique opportunity for collaboration of providers in the US, Canada and Mexico. Your annual $50 Membership dues offers access to our membership directory, document library, listserve, newsletters, etc. We also host quarterly Grand Rounds/Journal Club virtually.
The North American chapter’s goals are to educate providers and offer support to its members. The North American Chapter offers educational courses approximately twice annually and has a Biennial Scientific meeting in which abstracts are presented and new officers are elected. The Society is managed by the executive director of the ISSVD, Debbie Roepe. She may be contacted at issvd@issvd.org.
Membership in the North American Chapter is not inclusive of membership in the ISSVD, they are two separate memberships. You may join either society or both.
