Nurses make up the largest group of healthcare providers in the state, so it’s essential that we have a voice in policy making and engage in the political process. The perceived time needed to engage in policy involvement or development outside of daily “nursing work” as well as the resources to develop skills in policy participation has often hampered nurses from becoming involved in advocacy. Yet, when it comes to advocating on behalf of nurses, VNA makes advocacy easy. We are the only organization speaking for the 140,000+ nurses throughout Virginia. Our lobbyists, leadership, and members work passionately to educate our legislators and state policymakers on issues crucial to the advancement of the nursing profession. We update our members weekly during our legislative calls and send legislative e-blasts with breaking news during the legislative session.
