Blog, ,

The National League for Nursing (NLN) Leadership Institute is offering three-full year long leadership programs for faculty, researchers, and clinicians, deans, associate/assistant deans, directors, and nurse administrators in practice. This leadership opportunity is for aspiring and emerging leaders, transitioning to leadership positions, and those who are already experienced leaders. The common goal is commitment to excellence in nursing education, research, and practice resulting in transformational leadership experience (NLN 4th core value, AAPINA objs. 5, 6).

Please take advantage of this leadership opportunity. The attached flyer has detailed information about the three leadership programs, application instructions, and contact information.

In this webinar, AAPINA’s efforts and outcome to promote a Culture of Health and Health Equity through mentorship, research, practice, and education as well as initiatives to promote the health and well-being of APIs were discussed. The history, mission and vision of AAPINA, challenges, initiatives from the chapters, and plan for future collaborations with the Campaign’s Action’s state-based Action Coalitions were also discussed.
