Do you have a passion for the environment? Have you translated that passion into your nursing practice?

The Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments is launching an Environmental Health Nurse Fellowship program starting June 2019! This opportunity is a great way to plug in at both the national and community level, gain skills and connections, take your career to the next level, and make a difference through helping to create a healthier environment. Applications due March 31st.

 

This fellowship for nurses focuses on addressing environmental health in your community and is designed to:

  • Increase your capacity to assess and address environmental health issues
  • Focus on community-level impact
  • Address environmental justice
  • Advance health equity 

Through mentored learning with a senior nursefellows are provided support and guidance throughout the program so that nurses with all levels of experience can learn and find value in participation in the program. While there is a small time commitment, the program is structured with flexibility built in to accommodate the fellows' schedules. The one-year Fellowship also includes travel and accommodations to two national workshops on environmental health and nursing. There is a total of 30 Fellowships being offered. Please note applicants are not required to have a higher degree in nursing and we welcome nurses with all types of nursing degrees to apply (LPN/LVN, RN, MSN, DNP, etc.). There is flexibility in the years of nursing requirement and applicants will be considered on a case by case basis. Please email cara@envirn.org if you are interested in applying and have less than 3 years of nursing experience.
