Nurses Day at the Capitol
REGISTRATION FOR THE EVENT HAS CLOSED!
Due to the overwhelming response of nurses and nursing students across the state, we’ve exceeded capacity at the venue and cannot accept any additional registrations for the event. We apologize for any inconvenience this causes.
Please join us for the Arkansas Nurses Association Nurses Day at the Capitol on February 23rd at Next Level Events in Little Rock, Arkansas. If you have ever wondered what lobbying at the Capitol is all about, now is your chance to find out! Nurses and student nurses are invited to participate in this event. Participants will gain firsthand knowledge of the legislative process and how ARNA works to protect the interests of professional nurses on a daily basis. At the 2023 ARNA Nurses Day at the Capitol, attendees will be treated to a kickoff breakfast and luncheon, as well as an opportunity to meet their local elected officials and discuss the current important issues impacting the largest healthcare workforce in our state – nurses! Rounding out the day will be a presentation from Jason Richie, Associate Director in State Government Affairs and Policy for the American Nurses Association.
