Later this month, I will volunteer at the 21^st annual Move Mountains Medical Mission (formerly Remote Area Medical Clinic) in Wise, Va. The event is scheduled for July 28-30 and is still looking for volunteers. Please consider sharing your time and talents to provide care in an underserved region of our state. To join us or get more information, click the link below, and let me know if you plan to be there!

Richmond Region members enjoyed a social at the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts in June.

Membership renewals will begin later this month. Be sure to renew your membership before September so you don’t miss out on all your VCNP benefits including invitations to regional events like this summer’s regional socials.

To see information that’s only available to VCNP members, log in to your member account. While you’re there, update your member profile by going to My Account – Update my Info. You can list specialty info, add your name to the preceptor list, update your email or address, and register for important text updates. Need help? Contact staff.

Our new PAC year began July 1, and we’ve set a $20,000 goal for the year. If every VCNP member gives $50 (either as a lump sum or through monthly contributions), we can exceed our goal for 2023-24! Remember that the automatic contribution option needs to be renewed every 12 months. If you are no longer seeing donations automatically withdrawn, please sign up again!

Funds are used to support legislators who champion NP practice. Make an investment in our profession by giving now!

It may be the dog days of summer, but we’re already thinking back to school – and we want to highlight our NP educators! Whether you’re an educator, student or recent grad, let us know why you love what you do or how an NP educator has impacted you. Please send your thoughts with your name, credentials and a photo to staff.

Looking for ways to advance the profession and meet other NPs? Nominations for VCNP state positions open soon. Want more info? Contact current officers or review job descriptions in your member account under Bylaws & Policies - Policies & Procedures.

The call for conference presentations is open for the 2024 VCNP conference, scheduled for March 13-16 at The Williamsburg Lodge. Submit your application by August 4.
