National Nurse Practitioner Week takes place November 13 - 19, 2011. The online toolkit materials can help you plan activities to build awareness around the critical role of the nurse practitioner.

Community Activity Ideas
Tips and ideas for activities to involve your community members, elected officials and local media.

Special Activities 
Additional activity ideas and free resources from some of AANP’s partners in supporting nurse practitioners, including the American Heart Association, American Medical ID, HealthyWomen and more.

Sample Proclamation
A customizable template to obtain a proclamation in honor of National Nurse Practitioner Week. The procedure may vary slightly from state to state or city to city in working with elected officials (governors, mayors, city council members, etc.), but usually it is a fairly simple procedure.  It is harder to obtain a public signing of this declaration but we encourage you to request the elected official to grant a public signing.  You can create your own media event to publicize the proclamation if you are unable to get a public signing.

Media Kit
Includes customizable templates for a news release and letter to the editor, as well as a media interview guide, talking points, sample public service announcements and an NP fact sheet.

NP Week Posters
Two versions of the NP Week poster are available, one with a horizontal orientation and one vertical.  Download and print them locally for display.  The files can also be sent to print shops such as FedEx office for professional printing.
