What would you do?

Could you at least claim it as "work related expenses" on your taxes so you feel like you are getting a bit of a break?

Could you split the cost among other district nurses and share the vouchers with each other?

Has the cost gone up? Or maybe it varies by state. I pay about $36 quarterly for my dues. My district doesn't pay for it either. I do get the VSP vouchers, but I get alot more out of my membership too. I like that I get membership into my state's association. And there is a lot of good info on both the sites.

You're talking to the one and only :)

Yes, it varies by state. I guess broken down into quarterly, it doesn't seem as bad.

I wasn't a member for a long time due to cost. I'm able to do know and have found it to be worth the $$

Could a Social Worker reach out to try and acquire similar vouchers? Or have a budget they could pull from to get this resource?

I wouldn't do it.

i wouldn't pay for it myself just for that. I pay my own dues to my county school nurse assoc, but it's no where near that cost.

Do you have a PTA/PTO/HSA of whatever the parent organization calls themselves in your area? Luckily, Davis Vision provides vouchers in our area, but this is a cost that my school's HSA would gladly pick up.
