NAPO

Founded in 1985, the National Association of Professional Organizers (NAPO) is a non-profit association for professional organizers and manufacturers of organizing products.  It was established to develop and promote the organizing industry as it grew internationally. NAPO membership is not required to be a professional organizer, but certainly recommended, as this is the source for continued education and advancement of your organizing business.
