2023 FNA Advocacy Days
Presented by the Florida Nurses Association and the Florida Nurse Practitioner Network
Advocacy Days is FNA’s annual event that empowers nurses to have a voice on legislative issues that affect their profession and the well-being of the patients they serve. Each Advocacy Days, nurses from across the state gather in Tallahassee during legislative session to learn about current legislative issues and specific bills that may affect their practice or the overall healthcare environment in Florida. They then have the opportunity to meet with their legislators one-on-one to discuss these issues and advocate for nursing. Advocacy Days is a great opportunity for both upcoming and seasoned nurses to get involved in advocacy work, regardless of whether they have prior experience in this realm or not.
What makes the most difference in getting our needs heard? It is the voices and votes of NURSES. Legislators want to hear from constituents. As members of the most trusted profession, nurses have a unique opportunity to be advocates for their patients and their profession. It all starts with building strong relationships with policy makers and making our needs and desires known. Join us February 8-9, 2023!
