Assess the need for a new Local Chapter:

• Is there an existing Local Chapter of the NA-YGN nearby?
• Will that local chapter include members from your company in its activities and membership?

Identify organizations in your area where potential members may be employed:

• Nuclear Plants
• Nuclear Vendors
• Medical Facilities
• Universities
• Government Agencies

Identify potential NA-YGN members:

• Talk to friends & colleagues.
• Talk to your Human Resources representatives.
• Talk to your management.
  
• Include your 36+ colleagues and coworkers from the very beginning!
  • There is a role for them in NA-YGN!! Make sure they know what that role is and how they can participate.

Partner with - don’t compete with - other local organizations

• Identify local chapters and sections of ANS, HPS, WIN, ASME, etc.
• Identify potential collaboration areas with other local organizations.
• Ask local organzation leads how NA-YGN might help expand participation in their activities.
