This is a working conference. The heart of the program is the mutual sharing of our work and our lives. Thus each registrant is expected to come prepared to share something from his or her life or work in a small group context. There are no ground rules about what particular individuals may decide to share.

The small consultation groups have become a highly significant part of the Plenary Meeting. They represent this community’s commitment to hearing and responding to each voice in the community. They also have become educational events as we come to give both care and consultation to each other.

While programs that are accredited by the ACPE meet CMS definition of an Approved Nur
