​NFNSSAA Membership
 The National Federation of Nonpublic State Accrediting Associations (NFNSSAA) is an organization comprised of state chapters that accredit nonpublic schools within their individual states. The National Federation recognizes and supports the state chapters in their accreditation process and the individual schools approved by the state chapters. The purpose of the organization is to share information, provide guidance, and collaborate on national and local issues impacting state nonpublic schools.

A State Chapter of NFNSSAA can be comprised of various nonpublic schools and systems. Each chapter has set accreditation standards and criteria which includes:
Mission / Philosophy, Administration, Governance, School Climate, Parental and Community Involvement, Student Services, Professional Staff, Curriculum, Instructional Resources, Finances, Strategic Plans, and Development. If a school within the state chapter is seeking dual accreditation with another association, both accrediting associations must be part of the validation team and site visit. State chapters pay an annual membership fee, submit annual reports, and attend an annual conference. 
NFNSSAA Criteria for State Membership:
​Articles of Incorporation & By-Laws, Tax Exempt Status 501(c)(3), Board of Directors & Governing Body, Established Educational Standards, Annual Reporting Process, Tracking Procedures for Recommendations, Board Meeting Minutes, Appeals Process, and NFNSSAA Annual Meeting Attendance.
