APN Advocacy
Advocacy is a critical skill for APNs to have for promoting solutions to health
concerns within a community. Identify a health issue in your community or state.
Discuss a systems-level advocacy strategy to address the concern. In the strategy,
students should identify specific groups or individuals that they would target as well
as how they would target these individuals. For example, a student may choose to
contact a legislator with a letter-writing campaign and would describe strategies for
implementing that campaign.
