In early April, volunteers participated at the National Student Nurses Association convention, held this year at the Gaylord Opryland Hotel & Convention Center.

One nursing student upon seeing the materials promptly said, “I’ve seen ECT performed, and I was horrified.” Another told a personal story of a younger brother who began having seizures after taking psychiatric drugs. Many of the nursing students offered ideas of alternatives and were very glad CCHR provided documentaries and useful information that they can use as they begin their careers.
