Dear valued members,
As 2023 comes to an end, we would like to extend a happy holiday season and New Year to our valued members. Every member of the Community Health Nurses Initiatives Group is valued in your past, present, and future contributions to the role of community health and public health nursing. Without you and your dedication, CHNIG would not be able to continue to achieve our goals of influencing health and social policy, building capacity in community health nursing, and strengthening the profile of community health nurses.

They will share stories where barriers to advancing equity and justice were removed and views of a more equitable and just future came into being. Listening to and reflecting on stories about advancing equity and justice allows us to envision a better future, share transformative narratives, and expand the range of what is possible.
