NNA Women's Health Promotion Conference

NNA is pleased to present "Collaborating to Promote Women's Health: Tools and Strategies that Work" on May 10, 2011. This one day conference, based in Las Vegas, will be free to participants and presented at 9 other sites throughout the state. CEUs for nurses and substance abuse counselors will be provided.

 

We are honored that First Lady Kathleen Sandoval has agreed to open the conference, and the Director of the Office of Women's Health in Washington DC will attend and present the keynote address.

 

For more information or to register, please visit our website at www.nvnurses.org.

 

We have a limited budget for advertising this conference, and we need your help to let people know about it. Please help us to spread the word. We will also be sending out a flyer soon that you can print and post in your workplace.

NNA Seeks Assistance with Marketing Plan

The NNA State Board decided at the annual retreat in January to develop an NNA marketing plan, and we are looking for assistance from members. Do you have a background or experience in marketing? If so, would you consider sharing your knowledge and expertise with NNA?

 

Please contact us if you can help.

 

Please let me know if you have comments, suggestions, or information you want included in the next News You Can Use.

 

Sincerely,

 

Margaret
