As part of that shared mission, we encourage you to mark your calendar for an important upcoming event:

Texas Nurse Practitioners Annual Health Policy Conference

 Texas Nurse Practitioners for a day of powerful learning, connection, and advocacy at the Texas State Capitol. This conference equips nurse practitioners and healthcare professionals with the tools to understand, influence, and help shape Texas health policy from the ground up.

Participants will gain firsthand insight into the legislative process, explore pressing healthcare challenges, and learn how to make their voices heard through effective grassroots advocacy. Whether you are new to health policy or a seasoned advocate, this conference offers a front-row seat to the future of Texas healthcare—and the opportunity to be part of meaningful change.

We look forward to another year of collaboration, leadership, and progress together. Wishing you a healthy, fulfilling, and impactful New Year.
