NETWORK MEMBER 1
Name: N/A
Title: N/A
Organization: Houston Area Nurse Practitioners (HANP)
Academic or Professional: Professional
Why I selected this individual and/or team and how they will support my success
in the MSN program and as a practicing nurse: This organization is a no brainer
since it is local for me and attending events would not be an issue. This organization is
committed to professional collaboration and education. This organization would be very
helpful for local networking with other NPs in the greater Houston area. It is a great
resource for helping NPs stay up to date with local legislation.
