Volunteer Program Guide

The NHRMA Volunteer Program is essential to the seamless execution of the NHRMA Annual Conference & Tradeshow. Volunteers who donate their time provide invaluable assistance to the onsite coordination of the Conference.

In exchange for volunteering for a minimum of six (6) hours throughout the duration of the Conference, volunteers can register for the full Conference at the discounted rate of $350 (a savings of up to ($425!).

If you would like to volunteer for less than six hours, please note that you will not be eligible for the discounted rate.

Note: Cancellation or reduction of volunteer hours may impact eligibility for the discounted rate. If a registered volunteer falls below the minimum requirement, the volunteer's registration fee will be adjusted to the applicable Conference rate at the time of registration.
