Arizona Mission, History, Governance, & Bylaws

NAPO Arizona Chapter

Our Mission

Our mission is to be the leading source of information for the organizing and productivity industry in Arizona. As part of our mission, NAPO-AZ actively strives to further the expertise of our members through ongoing education and hands-on experience. We provide a supportive and collaborative environment in which to discuss professional issues.

Our History

For over 20 years (founded in 1996), our professionals have brought a wealth of knowledge, years of education, and significant hands-on experience to our work. In addition to a strong local presence, our colleagues across the country and internationally form a referral network of over 3,100 professionals to better serve our clients who may have multiple residences and businesses or who may be relocating themselves or a loved one to be closer to family.

Governance and Bylaws

NAPO-AZ is governed by a Board of Directors elected annually by our membership of professional organizers, productivity consultants, and business partners.

NAPO ARIZONA STATEMENT ON DIVERSITY, EQUITY AND INCLUSION

a diverse, equitable and inclusive professional organization drives innovation within our association, builds successful businesses, and delivers cultural competency in our work with the communities we serve.

As members, we believe

our members should feel valued for their talents and experience, recognized for their contributions, and encouraged to bring their authentic selves to participate in NAPO and our industry.

As a community, we believe

that when people feel appreciated and included, they will be more creative, collaborative, innovative, and successful. We believe that treating each other with respect and kindness in our words and actions builds community within our association and enriches us all.
