While the primary purpose of NAI is to influence state policies on free speech, free press, open government, and the newspaper business in general, NAI provides other services as well:
- NAI organizes periodic conferences and meeting opportunities. The winter meeting coincides with an annual “fly-in” to spend the day at the Statehouse meeting with the state’s elected leaders. Other conferences include speakers on a variety of topics.
- NAI contracts with the Idaho Department of Administration to administer specific Statewide Public Notices.
- Through the Statewide Display Advertising Program, NAI provides a one-buy, one-bill option for advertising in Idaho’s newspapers.
- NAI strives to regularly update its members on news and information vital to Idaho’s newspapers.
- The association provides other services as requested by its members and approved by its board of directors.
