Formation of Affiliated Constituent Leagues
The NLN encourages our members to get involved at the local level to advance
the League’s mission. If there is no constituent league in your area,
and you have a local interested group of nurse educators, you may be ready to
start your own affiliated constituent league of the National League for Nursing.

Affiliated Constituent League, click

Constituent League Leadership Awards
The Constituent League Awards are distributed annually to local leaders that
go that extra mile for their state, the NLN, and the nursing education community.
There are two distinct categories:
- Outstanding Leadership (of a Constituent League)
- Innovative & Effective Membership Recruitment
An appeal for nominees goes out each year in June and awards are presented at
the Constituent League Leadership Workshop held annually in September. To view
the nomination criteria click here.
Both constituent league members and NLN members in states/regions with a fully
affiliated constituent league are eligible to vote for their constituent leaders.
When nominations open, be sure to propose the person in your constituent league
that you feel should be recognized for outstanding performance and results.

2009 nomination form.
We hope you will join us in honoring constituent league leaders with the outstanding
performance and outstanding results that contribute to the NLN’s mission:
Nominate a local leader.
