Dear GAPNA Members,
I am writing to provide you with an update following our recent Strategic Plan review session, which was held in person at the GAPNA Pharmacology Conference on March 6th, 2025. As part of our ongoing commitment to ensuring that our organization remains aligned with the needs and mission of our members, the Board of Directors convened to assess the Strategic Plan that was initially drafted in Spring 2022.
After thoughtful discussion and consideration, I am pleased to share that the Strategic Plan we put in place two years ago continues to reflect the goals and priorities of GAPNA and remains fully relevant to our current focus. As such, we have determined that the existing plan will remain in effect until our next scheduled review period.
Moving forward, our primary focus will be on enhancing the tactics and strategies to best support and advance GAPNA's mission, ensuring that we continue to deliver on the commitments we’ve made to our members and the communities we serve.
Thank you for your ongoing dedication and support of GAPNA. We look forward to continuing our collective work toward advancing the field of gerontological advanced practice nursing and fostering professional growth for all our members.
Should you have any questions or wish to discuss the strategic direction further, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Warm regards, George Peraza-Smith President, 2024–2025 Gerontological Advanced Practice Nurses Association
