Happy New year Region 5! This year let’s set some intentions for our purpose. Chapters give safe spaces for nurses to come together for growth, community, and support. 2025 was a year of inspiring chapter dinners, 50 year anniversaries, celebrations of certifications and more. 2026 will be even more awe inspiring. Let’s do this On Purpose!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of Region 5! Our community of nurses is uniquely wonderful and some of the most dedicated to our nursing profession. Thank you for continuing to inspire and commit to your chapter every day! An extra special thank you for those spending the holidays away from loved ones at work.
