Dear ENCSGNA Members,
After much consideration, based on the latest data and guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention regarding Covid 19, the ENCSGNA board and I have decided it would be best to cancel the Spring Education Conference on April 17-18, 2020. In the past few days, it has become clear that the spread of the virus continues across the country and that we are in the state of a pandemic. Even though this is due to circumstances beyond our control, we, as a professional organization, will align with the CDC in doing our part in taking steps now to minimize health and safety risks to our members and each other.
In addition to keeping in-line with the CDC recommendations to refrain from attending events with greater than 50 people, the ENCSGNA Board and I care about the well-being of each other and feel it is only right to cancel with the possibility of rescheduling. Our decision to cancel mirrors the actions taken by many of our hospitals, schools, and universities across the country. As the President of the Board, I will keep you updated if rescheduling is even possible, depending on when restrictions are lifted. If you have already registered for the Spring Conference, you will be given a full refund.
Although our goal is to provide educational conferences to our members twice a year, protecting the health and continuity of our community takes precedence. I appreciate your understanding, as this decision was not an easy one.
Sincerely,
Rhonda
Rhonda Nelson Past President and ENCSGNA Board
