YNPN Atlanta was founded on April 10, 2011. Prior to this there were a couple of attempts by some students to create an Atlanta chapter, but these attempts never led to a formal, permanent chapter.

As of July 31, 2012 we have 57 paid members (and 58 free members, 115 total). In the past year we have held a total of 12 events for our members.
