Call for Speakers for the upcoming 2nd Annual APRN Practice Update:

This meeting last year was just fantastic, and we are very excited for a second year of our amazing members presenting on topics of interest! We have had several members express interest in speaking, but still need a few more - if you are interested, please reach out to Christen via email or text/phone call.

As this is a non-CE presentation, there is flexibility with every element of the presentation so the presenter can use handouts, powerpoint, casual discussion with guiding questions, whatever you want!
