Advocacy Day
March 15-16, 2023
Join nurse leaders from across the country for AONL’s two-day advocacy day. Learn how to advocate effectively – sharing your story about the impact of national issues on your patients, community and nursing teams. Legislators want and need to hear directly from you how these issues affect their constituents and what they can do to support you.
Why should you participate?
Advocacy Day is an opportunity to elevate the voice of nursing leadership and network with your peers. Using a mix of on-demand courses and live training sessions, AONL will explain the key legislative issues and teach you the skills on how to connect your personal stories with AONL’s congressional asks. We make participating easy for you by pairing you with fellow advocates from your state and scheduling your congressional meetings.
Registration is open until February 24.
