Collaborative Opportunities for Emergency Nurses

◊ The Luminary Project - Nurses Lighting the Way to Environmental Health

The Luminary Project - Nurses Lighting the Way to Environmental Health is a new collaborative environmental health initiative of Health Care Without Harm (HCWH), the American Nurses Association (ANA), and the University of Maryland School of Nursing. The Luminary Project is a web-based collection and sharing of illuminating stories of nurses who protect people’s health by improving the health of the environment. These Luminary Nurses will be recognized and their stories told, so as to provide models and mentorship for other nurses with a shared sense of concern about environmental health issues. Strategic tools and resource materials used by the Luminary Nurses are available for downloading by those who access the website. For more information about this project and how you can submit stories and become a Luminary Nurse visit the website: www.TheLuminaryProject.org or contact Marjorie Buchanan, MS, RN, Project Coordinator, The Luminary Project, 410/829-2862 or email mbuchana@ana.org.

ENA is facilitating the opportunity for emergency nurses to voluntarily participate in this project. This facilitation does not constitute formal ENA endorsement of this program.
