Welcome to the SNAP Legislation Page!

Are you interested in the legislative process?

Are you especially concerned about health care legislation and how it will affect the nursing profession?

Are you curious about the actions you can take as a Nursing Student to influence legislative decisions that will affect your career?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then the Capitol Hill Step by Step Program is a great opportunity for you!

The Capitol Hill Step by Step program is a biannual program organized by SNAP and is a great opportunity for nursing students to learn about legislative procedure and how they can influence these legislative decisions as nursing students. This program is provided at no cost and will be held on March, 28th 2011 in Harrisburg, PA.

For more information please visit the program's website page at: http://www.snap-online.org/workshop.html
