Volunteer Opportunities with NYSANA's DEI Committee

Welcome to NYSANA's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Committee. It is our hope to include DEI into every aspect of NYSANA and with your help, here are some ways in which we hope to achieve this:
  1. Monthly calendar posts: We're working on Monthly social media and quarterly newsletter posts to celebrate DEI events and observances, while highlighting incredible NYS CRNAs.
  2. Diversifying CRNA admissions: We are coordinating with Diversity CRNA program, led by Dr. Lena Gould, to facilitate more of their in-person events at nursing and CRNA schools across NY state to help diversity the applicant pool for all CRNA programs.
  3. Volunteering in Schools: We are seeking volunteer CRNAs who want  to help educate students regarding the CRNA profession at middle school, high school, and undergrad  programs across the state.
  4. Mentoring:The Daniel Payne Mentorship program will launch later this fall, and we are looking for CRNAs who want to mentor RRNAs throughout school and beyond. Ideally with more volunteers, this mentorship program will expand to ICU nurses seeking to become CRNAs as well
