FNPN's President (Dr. Janet DuBois) and Vice President (Dr. Doreen Cassarino) of Legislative Affairs traveled to Tallahassee yesterday to visit with Legislators during FNA's Advocacy Days. We visited with many of our legislators, including Rep. Cary Pigman, Sen. Aaron Bean, Sen. Denise Grimsley, Sen. Audrey Gibson, and house pro tempre Rep. Matt Hudson.

We had a very successful day and are thrilled to report that there is strong support throughout both the Senate and House for our Controlled Substance bills as well as our Baker Act bill. We are confident that our legislators are doing everything possible to see that these bills pass. 

We were later honored when the following legislators sat with us during dinner (see our pictures below).

We thank all our members and followers for there support and ask that you continue to check back frequently to see our announcements and requests for help!
