SEPTEMBER 2024

DIVERSITY CRNA NEWSLETTER

Dear Diversity CRNA Community,


As we enter the final quarter of the year, I am filled with gratitude for all we have accomplished together in 2024. I cannot believe how quickly this year has flown by, and yet here we are, with so much to celebrate and still much more to look forward to.


First, I am excited to remind you that our next in-person event is just around the corner at Duke University, taking place from September 20th  - 22nd . Although the in-person event has reached capacity, you can still join us virtually by registering for the Zoom broadcast of the Saturday Information Session.


The last in-person event for 2024 will be held at Fairfield University in October 25th – 27th , which is also at capacity with an extensive waitlist. If you missed the chance to register for any of our in-person events this year, do not fret—our 2025 event registration will open in December 2024 on our website.


We had an amazing event at Rosalind Franklin University in August, and I encourage you to check out the pictures and videos.


Looking ahead, we still have valuable sessions open for registration, including our remaining Diversity CRNA Interview Preparation Sessions for 2024. And please do not forget our Resume & Personal Statement Writing Workshop on November 9th via Zoom, a great opportunity to polish your materials as you prepare to take the next steps in your journey to become a CRNA.



This year has truly been action-packed, and I am honored to continue this journey with all of you. Let's finish the year strong, and I look forward to seeing you soon!
