ANA Innovation Lounge: Nurses’ Role in Advancing Democracy
August 7 @ 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm EDT
Advancing social change, legislation, and the political landscape is a space where the skills of nurses shine. Learn about grassroots advocacy initiatives, a campaign school created specifically for nurses to engage in the political process, and the local work being done in community Emergency Departments to increase civic engagement around the country. Learn how these political and policy innovations can help you to take your next steps around civic engagement, elected office, or leading efforts to shape and advance our communities, society, and maybe even the democratic process itself!
