Change to our Conference Line-Up
Posted over 2 years ago by Lori Kelley
Hello School Nurses and Conference Attendees-
PASNAP is sad to announce that due to unforeseen circumstances, the National Alliance for Mental Illness will be unable to join us on Saturday morning at the Conference.
We are happy to welcome Milton Hershey School to our Saturday morning lineup. They will be presenting a session called "Poverty, Chocolate, and the School Nurse."
Here is a brief overview: Utilizing poverty statistics and the research of people like Dr. Eric Jensen, Dr. Ruby Payne, Dr. Nadine Burke Harris, and Dr. Paul Gorski, this workshop addresses the characteristics and traits of students/families in poverty. Topics include: Health effects of Poverty, the behavior patterns of many in poverty, assessing resources available to families, and how economic realities affect daily living. This updated session will highlight Nursing Services.
