Michigan Nurses March
Be a part of an exciting event for nurses in downtown Lansing on March 19, 2009!
Join hundreds of nurses and nursing students for a day of political activism at the Michigan Nurses MARCH! The MARCH!, co-sponsored by the Michigan Nurses Association and the Michigan Nursing Students Association features meetings with legislators, a review of nursing issues, and the latest news from Washington about issues that affect nurses. Begin the day by eating breakfast and visiting the vendor area. After a morning of learning about the latest National and State political news that could affect your nursing practice, join with other nurses in a march to the Capitol where a rally will be held on the Capitol steps. After visiting with legislators, lunch and a debriefing session, plan on taking a guided tour of the Capitol! In addition, if you participate in the full days activities, you can earn 3.0 contact hours!
All this for only $10 for MNA members! Get the MARCH! brochure and register on-line at http://www.minurses.org/marchreg.shtml.
Now is the time for nurses to be visible at the Capitol in advocacy for our patients and our profession. Be seen – be heard – be strong in 2009!
