Our hearts are with all those affected by natural disasters. We know many of our members have been affected in the past or are being affected now. That is why we have set up the Nurse Support and Emergency fund to assist our colleagues who have suffered devastating losses. We are profoundly grateful for the nurses, healthcare professionals, and other first responders who continue to serve their communities with unwavering compassion and strength, even as many of you face personal challenges. Your dedication is a testament to the resilience and courage that defines our profession. Funds will be distributed according to level of need and priority will be given to those in need of housing. If you have suffered a loss as a result of a natural disaster and are in need of assistance, please fill out the form below. For any questions, please contact Kimberly Long at kimberly@acnl.org.
