Join the RNPN and leaders across public, non-profit, and faith-based sectors as we discuss building resilience through inclusion. How can we truly serve our community without its equitable voices? We can’t. We will dive deeper into this topic as we continue to deliver on our promise to advocate for equity. Stay tuned for a special announcement! We will launch a new initiative during this session.
