As the NNBA celebrates 41 years, I’m reminded that we are not just an organization, we’re a movement.
We’re here for the nurse who takes her first step into business because she sees someone else doing it and realizes she can too.
We’re here for the late nights of turning ideas into reality, and for the quiet moments when a breakthrough finally clicks.
We’re here for the courage it takes to step away from the traditional path and build something of your own.
This is what makes the NNBA so special. It’s in our conversations, our mentorship, our collaborations, and in the support we give one another every day.
Over the past four decades, we’ve been a home for nurses at every stage, whether you are a dreamer, a doer, or a leader. And right now, we’re working harder than ever to expand our resources, create new opportunities, and build a stronger community.
Whether you connect with us online, mentor the next generation, or simply take inspiration from others’ journeys, you are part of the living legacy of the NNBA. Together, we’re shaping the future of nurse entrepreneurship.
