With hundreds of bills before the NH legislature this session, you may be wondering how does our NHNPA leadership decides when and how to engage in the state's legislative process. Our staff, consultants, and members have decades of experience navigating the NH State Government including the legislative and executive branches. Our team includes recognized leaders in both the state and Nation's capitol. Through our advocacy work, we are engaged in: legislation, rulemaking, administrative hearings, and licensure and regulatory matters. NHNPA is also represented on a wide-rage of legislative commissions through appointed seats.
Protecting and enhancing the scope of practice for NPs and ensuring legislative and cultural environments that empower NPs to be leaders in healthcare are our key priorities. We further believe that NPs can provide an important and valuable perspective in shaping all health policy in addition to the healthcare decisions of individual patients. We strongly believe that NHNPA and NPs should be at every table where these decisions are being made!

Reserve your spot today!!! “Promoting Child and Family Resilience and Healing in a Pandemic” ECHO Series
Come learn with and from your pediatric care colleagues! Every day pediatric care clinicians across NH are addressing the mental, emotional, and social impacts of the pandemic on children, teens, and families. The NH Mental Health Care Access in Pediatrics (NH MCAP) Project seeks to support you in these efforts by offering a virtual, lunchtime, case-based learning series starting in February 2022 entitled “Promoting Child and Family Resilience and Healing in a Pandemic.” This ECHO series will support pediatric care clinicians in applying brief, in-office interventions followed by linkages to community and virtual resources to mitigate the harmful mental, emotional, and social impacts of the pandemic. Additionally, the series will assist clinicians in building child and family resilience through the development of “safe, stable, and nurturing relationships” between youth and their primary caregivers. FREE CME/CNEs as well as complementary provider-to-provider patient consults with psychiatric, pharmacology, and other subject matter experts will be provided. To learn more CLICK HERE and to register CLICK HERE.
This ECHO series is being provided by the NH Mental Health Care Access in Pediatrics Project, a collaborative effort of the NH Dept. of Health and Human Services and the NH Pediatric Improvement Partnership with funding from the Health Resources and Services Administration.

NHNPA has been very fortunate to have several regional coordinators choose to accept other positions on the Board of Directors. As they are transitioning to their new roles, we are looking for new volunteers to serve as regional coordinators. This is a great opportunity to become more involved with the Association, network with peers and contribute to the NP community.
Regional coordinators participate in efforts to increase membership, bring the local NP voice the statewide Board as well as coordinate regional activities to offer networking opportunities and educational events to support NPs throughout the year. We have some seen some very creative ideas: book/article discussions, potlucks, dinner out, industry-sponsored dinners with presentations from drug reps at local restaurants, virtual meet and greets, webinars and more! Regional coordinators are non-voting members of the Board of Directors and are invited to participate in Board meetings and retreats. Regional coordinators must be members of the Association.
