NCENA Sponsored Representatives for ENA Day on the Hill - Application Deadline March 18

Posted about 2 years ago

ENA Day on the Hill
May 3-4, 2022
Hilton Crystal City
Arlington, VA

NCENA is excited to announce ENA's premier annual advocacy event will be back in-person this year for a two-day program that features education about ENA’s current priorities, training on how to be an effective emergency nursing advocate when you meet with federal lawmakers and networking opportunities with your colleagues.  NCENA looks forward to advocating for positive change and celebrating emergency nurses on Capitol Hill!

(NOTE:  While ENA has not dedicated a time in their programming to visit our Congressmen/women, we will be planning this separately and anticipate deviating from the scheduled programming.)

FUNDING:
NCENA will reimburse those selected up to $1250 for the following costs:
- Airfare
- Hotel (conference hotel for 2 nights)
- Taxi/rideshare to/from airport and meetings
- Meals incl tax/gratuity (no alcohol will be reimbursed)
- Parking

APPLICATIONS:
NCENA is soliciting self-nominations to attend the ENA Day on the Hill event.  Unfortunately, we do not get many slots so we will only be able to take 1-2 members up this year.  If you are interested, please send in a letter of intent to include why you are interested, what you hope to gain from the experience, and any ENA Government Affairs activity/experience you have in the past 3 years.  The letter of intent must be submitted via email to NCENA Government Affairs at governmentaffairs@northcarolinaena.org no later than March 18th.  Selections will be announced on March 21st.

As a reminder, we will have a more local opportunity coming up later in May here in North Carolina.  The Nurses Night at the Legislature will be May 24, 2022.  Tickets will be announced shortly, but those not selected for the Day on the Hill event will be given the first opportunity to the local event.

If you have any questions, please reach out to NCENA Government Affairs at governmentaffairs@northcarolinaena.org.
