The Black Nurses Rock organization invites you to the 2017 Black Nurses Rock Annual Convention and Expo, September 27 – October 1st at The Rosen Shingle Creek in Orlando, Florida. This unique event will offer you the opportunity to meet and network with licensed practical nurses, registered nurses, nurse practitioners, CRNAs, military nurses, retired nurses, and nursing students.
Black Nurses Rock is the largest minority nursing association in the country, representing over 174,000 African American nurses and students from the USA, Canada, Eastern Caribbean, Africa, Japan, and Germany. Our annual convention provides a powerful forum for Black Nurses to share their stories, insights and opinions.
