NEW JERSEY LEAGUE FOR NURSING

MISSION

The purpose of the New Jersey League for Nursing is to support and implement the mission of the National League for Nursing, Inc. to advance quality nursing education to meet the needs of diverse populations in a ever changing health care environment at the constituent level.

PHILOSOPHY

NJLN believes in the advancement of nursing education through programs and opportunities for professional growth that address the changing needs of diverse students, faculty and nurses. We also believe that this endeavor can be enhanced by forming and promoting partnerships with all nurses and the consumers they serve. We further believe that NJLN must take measures to positively promote nursing through education, health care coalitions, and public recognition of nursing excellence.

A UNIQUE ORGANIZATION

The New Jersey League for Nursing is the only organization in New Jersey in which registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, allied health care providers, those providing nursing care through the employment of nurses, nurse educators, and consumers meet on common ground.

The Board of Directors consists of fourteen elected members who volunteer their time to govern the organization. These individuals represent nursing education, nursing service, long term nursing care, allied professional health groups and consumers in communities throughout the State of New Jersey.

Support is derived from membership dues, educational programs, special fundraising events, and contributions from individuals and corporations. The New Jersey League for Nursing is classified as a non-profit 501 (c) 3 organization that may receive tax deductible contributions as allowed by law.
