Campaign leaders Sue Hassmiller, PhD, RN, FAAN, and Susan Reinhard, PhD, RN, FAAN, this month sent an end-of-the-year thank you to Action Coalition co-leaders for all they’ve accomplished the past 12 months to improve America’s health through nursing. Action Coalitions have made great strides on the Institute of Medicine’s 2010 recommendations; this year they’ve also worked hard, and met success, in incorporating the Culture of Health into everything they do.

The letter takes a look ahead, too, at sessions that will be held in 2017 to build on this year’s efforts.
