National Perinatal Association Student Society (NPASS)

What is NPASS?

NPASS is the first ever student organizational branch of the National Perinatal Association. It brings a unique blend of interdisciplinary education, scholarship, advocacy, and service to your academic community. NPASS welcomes students from all disciplines, whether they are involved in health care, psychology, social work, health policy, or any other field related to perinatal health. Like its parent organization, NPASS is dedicated to promoting the most recent evidence-based practices and advocating for our patients and their families in the modern healthcare environment. The NPASS Chapter at SUNY Downstate was re-established in July of 2024.
