2023 Annual Meeting
Hello, 2023! We're back: Annual Meeting is live and in person, and we can't wait to see you in Saskatoon on April 26 to 28.
This year, the theme of SUN's Annual Meeting is Finding Our Way Back, in recognition of the fundamental, inner strength that drives both our organization and our membership. Registered nurses are an unstoppable force in healthcare and this year we're focused on why we practice. We're remembering the passion, the strength, and the joy of our practice, and fuelling our perseverance for the coming year.
Join SUN for the 49th Annual Meeting — see you soon!
