The National Notary Coalition Launches Nationwide Organization
The National Notary Coalition (NNC) has officially launched as a nationwide organization dedicated to strengthening, unifying and advocating for independent notaries across the United States. Founded by Tye Brown, founder and CEO, the coalition aims to elevate professional standards, promote ethical practices and provide a unified voice for notaries in an evolving regulatory environment. The NNC’s launch is supported by a strategic partnership with Keeler Notary & Fingerprinting, a veteran-owned small business based in Valrico, illustrating how local leadership can drive national impact within the notary profession.
“The notary profession is essential to public trust and fraud prevention, yet independent notaries have lacked cohesive representation,” Brown said. “The National Notary Coalition was created to address that gap and support notaries nationwide.”
More information on Keeler Notary & Fingerprinting can be found on its website at www.tampabaysigning.com or by calling 816-372-5220.
