Join NPA East For Less than $2.00 a week, We'll help you Protect Your Livelihood And Dramatically Improve Your Opportunity for Success!

That's a big promise. But it's one that NPA East has kept to its members for more than 20 years. NPA East is the only organization completely dedicated to the needs of natural products retailers in the east region, and those businesses who support them.

This volunteer-run, not-for-profit association exists solely to serve you in a number of critical areas:

How we protect your interests all year
Let me give you a tangible example of how NPA East fights for your best interests. Through my position as an NPA East Board Member, I recently took the lead in defeating legislation proposed in Albany last session that very likely would have established a mini-FDA in New York State. Had it passed, retailers in the state would have had yet another obstacle to remaining profitable. Just as important, this mini-FDA could have easily become the model for more restrictive regulation in other states. Today, we're fighting the good fight again in Albany to defeat a number of proposed bills that, if passed would jeopardize all natural products retailers in New York state and very likely spread to other states quickly.

NPA East: A Commitment to Advocacy
If we have learned anything from the political climate of the past decade, it is that our livelihood continues to be threatened by forces intent on using unnecessary legislation to try to limit, alter, or contribute to the demise of our industry.

That's why NPA East and its elected volunteer officers are relentless in reminding both Washington and our local government officials that the FDA has already established, through the DSHEA legislation of 1993, legal groundwork for fair and appropriate government oversight of our industry.

NPA East fights for your right to survive and prosper
Even with our success so far in protecting your right to do business, why do we keep up the fight? Because we know that a small, concentrated effort from a determined group could sway ill-informed legislators to make decisions and pass laws that could reverse decades of progress in the course of one legislative session.

The future of your business is too important to leave to others!
Yes, NPA East has been successful in protecting your interests. But this is an ongoing battle. To win, we need the support of everyone who sells, manufactures, and sustains the natural products industry in our region. We need you to continue the fight!

Please accept my invitation to join NPA East today. Annual dues are only $95.00 which is less than $2.00 a week to help protect your business. You can register now by following the instructions below. You'll be supporting the only organization dedicated exclusively to protecting your livelihood.

I believe that membership in NPA East is one of the best investments I make for the success of my business every year. Give us the opportunity to serve you, and I'm sure you'll feel the same way.

Sincerely,

Denise de la Montaigne
President
NPA East
