The National Press Photographers Association

The National Press Photographers Association is dedicated to the advancement of visual journalism — its creation, practice, training, editing and distribution — in all news media and works to promote its role as a vital public service. The objects and purposes of this Association are to advance visual journalism in all its forms.

The NPPA strives to create, promote and maintain a high spirit of community and a high standard of conduct among its members, encouraging visual journalists to reflect high standards of quality in their professional performance and in their personal code of ethics. The association also opposes violations and infringements of the rights of visual journalists or their organizations to promote a better understanding of visual journalists’ problems. By supporting legislation favorable to, and opposing legislation unfavorable or prejudicial to visual journalists, it works to maintain freedom of the press in all its forms and executes the Constitutional rights of journalists. The NPPA also cooperates with recognized local visual journalism associations consistent with the aims and objectives of NPPA, provides educational opportunities for those involved in all forms of visual journalism, and commits to reflecting diversity in all of NPPA’s activities.
