<strong>TNA</strong> VIRTUAL CONFERENCE | <strong>2021</strong>: YEAR OF THE NURSE 2.0 - ONE YEAR WASN’T ENOUGH<br />
Welcome to the <strong>2021</strong> <strong>TNA</strong> Annual <strong>Conference</strong>.<br />
General Announcements<br />
Please follow the conference schedule and be sure to connect to the appropriate link for Membership<br />
Assembly and General Sessions and for the appropriate Zoom meeting for concurrent sessions. A slide<br />
showing the appropriate web address to connect to the sessions will be displayed during breaks between<br />
sessions. Please take advantage of the chat feature while you wait for sessions to start to greet and make<br />
welcome the new members and first-time attendees to our conference.<br />
Since we cannot meet in person, the Tennessee Nurses Foundation Silent Auction and PAC Basket Auction cannot<br />
take place. These events are major fundraisers for each group. Please consider making a monetary donation to<br />
both by visiting the <strong>TNA</strong> website. We are asking for a $25 donation to each, but any amount is welcome.<br />
Voting on resolutions will take place via the chat function.<br />
