What is the Role of the Council of State Presidents Committee?

The NSNA Council of State Presidents Planning Committee plans and conducts the Council of State Presidents (COSP) meeting at the MidYear Conference and Annual Convention. The members of the planning committee are state presidents elected at COSP. The COSP Committee's responsibility is to discuss the priorities of the association, activities for the year, accomplishments, problems and to share ideas.  The committee allows for the interchange and consultation between state presidents, the NSNA Board of Directors, and staff (see NSNA Bylaws).

Winter Memo from Annie Nelson, Ex-Officio Director
Chair, Council of State Presidents

Greetings State Presidents!

Welcome from the Council of State Presidents Planning Committee!

We are so excited to work with you all at Annual COSP that we’ve already started planning.

Happy New Year everyone!!
 
Mark your calendar for the next COSP on Tuesday, April 3, 2018 during the NSNA 66th Annual Convention in Nashville, TN. I hope you plan to Apply For Awards.  Many states plan certain activities with the awards in mind. It is not too late to start getting the awards applications and resolutions ready for the Annual Convention.
