State Grassroots Liaisons (SGL)

What is a SGL?

SGLs are Deans/Directors/Chairs, who understand the importance of strengthening relationships between their members of Congress and Ó£»¨´«Ã½. Personal connections to congressional districts and states are paramount in Ó£»¨´«Ã½’s ability to have members of Congress support policies that align with Ó£»¨´«Ã½'s Federal Policy Agenda and advance issues impacting academic nursing.

Why are SGLs essential?

Ó£»¨´«Ã½ recognizes that its State Grassroots Liaisons (SGLs) are essential in the organization’s ability to advance Ó£»¨´«Ã½’s Federal Policy Agenda. In addition, SGLs serve as expert resources to colleagues in their state and help inform Government Affairs (GA) staff about state-level policy issues.
