My deepest gratitude to all the members and past leaders who have shaped PNA-New England to its current state, a strong and successful organization of passionate and dedicated nurses, with an unwavering desire to provide compassionate care, positively impacting lives, and effecting change. Thank you to the planning committee for your tremendous and tireless work preparing for this momentous occasion. This is just one example of the dedication and pride that PNA-NE puts into everything they do.

I am privileged to have worked with the outgoing Executive Board. They are a tough act to follow, but with the energy and vibrance of the incoming 2024-2026 Executive Board, we will make an IMPACT on New England and beyond! We will accomplish this by Inspiring Meaningful Partnerships and Collaboration Through... INNOVATION, MENTORSHIP, PROFESSIONALISM, ADVOCACY, COMPASSION & TEAMWORK. My goal and vision is that with these tenets, our newly appointed Executive Board will lead, empower, inspire and IMPACT PNA New England to a level greater than it has ever been.

Thank you all for your ardent fervor to the nursing profession. Let us continue to collaborate and support one another, and also encourage those who are not yet members to join our group. Resonating the legacy of Anastacia-Tupas, founder of the Philippine Nurses Association,

Let us "strive for excellence in nursing, advocating for the profession, and empower Filipino nurses to reach their full potential."

With God’s grace and with the 2024-2026 Executive Board, PNA New England will flourish and make a resounding IMPACT on our organization, our communities, our current partnerships and new partnerships.
