Why be a CANFP member?
Your CANFP Membership:
- Is your passport to becoming a member of the NFP community in California
- Unites you with others who share your insight into the importance of NFP for healthy women, healthy couples, healthy families, and a healthy society
- Makes everything CANFP has done, or will do, possible!
- Transforms great ideas into reality
- Means you are part of the solution
- Connects you with the latest and greatest NFP happenings throughout California, and in your own backyard

CANFP is supported through membership dues and donations. Every outreach effort, even each word on this page, is dependent upon the financial support of those who believe in our mission.
What does your membership contribute to CANFP?
CANFP is enriched by a membership of varied perspectives and talents. We each have our favorite NFP method, our unique experience and vision, and our role to play in spreading the good news of NFP. Every member of CANFP is vital to our success. Like a symphony, if one of the instruments is absent, the end result is compromised.
What do you bring to the table? Perhaps you bring years of experience teaching NFP, or perhaps you are totally new to all this NFP stuff, and you bring a fresh perspective that will help us craft an effective message. Perhaps you are most excited about the many health benefits of NFP, and its potential for transforming women’s health care. Perhaps your NFP interest is deeply intertwined with your faith, and your understanding of God’s design for love and life.
Maybe you are overflowing with ideas you would like to bring to life through active involvement as a member of CANFP.
Or maybe you prefer to be a silent partner, expressing your support of the mission of CANFP through your annual membership donation.
We want what you bring! Welcome to CANFP!
