The Association of Community Health Nursing Education (ACHNE) is pleased to invite submissions for abstracts for the 2024 ACHNE Annual Institute. The theme of the conference is "Meeting at the Crossroads of Healthcare."

The intended audience for this conference includes public health and community health nursing educators, public health leaders, public health nurses, and students and partners interested in public health, health equity, population health, social determinants of health, and other public health issues.

The purpose of this conference is to provide a scholarly and supportive community for those committed to excellence and innovation in community/public/population health nursing education, research, and practice. The conference will feature presentations, workshops, and networking opportunities that will explore the following objectives:

Objectives:

  2. Describe creative pedagogical approaches to community/public/population health nursing education, especially in the changing nursing education environment;
  3. Discuss implications and influence of community/public health nursing practice on current and emerging policies and programs, especially workforce and C/PHN faculty development;
  4. Examine new and innovative community/academic partnerships—including interprofessional education and practice—needed to meet the new AACN Essentials;
  5. Debate the implications and effects of recent social and political events on community/public/population health nurses and nurse educators/researchers (e.g., burnout, workforce issues, political engagement);
  6. Explore social ecology intersections (i.e., rural/suburban/urban; U.S regional, socio-economic, etc.) of community/public health nursing practice, education, and research.

Abstract submitters will be notified of decisions by January 5, 2024.  Visit www.ACHNE.org/institute for more information.

Abstracts are invited for presentations on original research, practice-based research, innovative teaching strategies, and other topics related to the conference theme.
