Nurse In Washington Internship Program 2009 Nurse In Washington Internship (NIWI) Program The Nurse In Washington Internship (NIWI) Program is sponsored by The Alliance and provides nurse practitioners and nurses the opportunity to learn how to influence health care through the legislative process. The program will take place on March 29 - 31, 2009 at the Liaison Capitol Hill. Click here for more information. NIWI participants have the opportunity to hear health policy experts and government officials speak about current issues in Washington. The workshop prepares participants for a day on the Hill and you will have the opportunity to visit with health legislative aides and members of Congress from your home state. Several NAPNAP members have taken advantage of this opportunity and found it very worthwhile. Attendees come back with a wealth of information to share with their chapters. The deadline to apply for the Nurse in Washington Internship has passed. Health Policy Fly In Day NAPNAP is also hosting its 2nd Health Policy Fly In Day to coincide with the NIWI Conference. Members are invited to participate in a day on the Hill, March 31, 2009, to speak with health legislative aides and members of Congress from your state. This is a great way to use your previous NIWI experience; however, you do not have to have previous NIWI experience to attend this day. Members will be responsible for all travel costs. The deadline to apply for the Health Policy Fly In Day has passed.
