The ASSP NC Chapter took a break from meetings to enjoy dinner and fellowship at our December Holiday Celebration!

It has been another successful first half of the physical year for the Chapter. The Chapter has a membership of over 450, and we’ve accomplished Platinum status 8 consecutive years.

Next year, December 13, 2025, we will celebrate our 70th anniversary as a Chapter. A celebration is being planned and would love to have as many retired, new, and current members in attendance. Keep checking back via the website for updates on that event.
