    RE: Parish Nursing Interest Group Name Change

    Dear Member,

    The Parish Nursing Interest Group (PNIG) executive presented a resolution at its 2018 PNIG AGM on April 21, 2018. The resolution proposed changing the name of the interest group from Parish Nursing Interest Group (PNIG) to Faith Community Nursing Interest Group (FCNIG).

    Please see attached backgrounder for the resolution.

    To formalize the name change, members of this interest group need to vote. The vote, which is on-line and comes directly to RNAO, is simple and easy.
