NNA Annual Convention

Register now to participate in the 2022 NNA Annual Convention – Coming Together! This year’s event will be held on October 7-8 at the Lincoln Marriott Cornhusker Hotel in Lincoln, Nebraska.

The 2022 Convention theme is “Coming Together”, and we are thrilled to be able to host the Convention this year in person. Educational topics include a unique look at how national and regional nursing organizations adapted to their members’ needs as the pandemic unfolded, and their innovative methods to continue their important work as advocates for their nurses.

A special session by American Nurses Association vice president Susan Swart will look at how ANA pivoted to meet the need for nurse resiliency and promoting role advocacy so we can all remember our “why”. Please join us!
