Meet the Candidates
There are a number of opportunities and resources available to help you and your chapter learn about the candidates and determine how to cast chapter votes. To view candidate photos, statements, and videos, visit SigmaNursing.org/Delegates. There you will also find information about upcoming Candidate Conversations webcasts. These webcasts will provide you with the opportunity to learn more about the candidates for President-elect, Vice President, Secretary, Director, and Regional Chapters Coordinating Committee Chair.
Due to the hybrid nature of this year’s convention, the Regional Meetings that were previously held on-site during convention will instead be hosted virtually before the event. These meetings will be held during September and October and will be hosted by your Regional Coordinator. All candidates running for the Regional Coordinator position will have an opportunity to address the region during these meetings. Connect with your Regional Coordinator to learn more about how to register for your meeting.
