The deadline to submit proposals for the 35th NCCNHR Annual Meeting and Conference is April 30 at 5:00 p.m.

NCCNHR is seeking submissions from a broad spectrum of long-term care stakeholders, including citizen advocates, resident and family councils, ombudsmen, and researchers.

Topics of particular interest are advocacy for individual residents as well as effective systemic advocacy and educational programs for the long-term care continuum, including nursing homes, assisted living, and home- and community-based services.

More information about NCCNHR’s October 2010 event (including an RFP) is available on NCCNHR’s website (pdf).

Formerly the National Citizens’ Coalition for Nursing Home Reform, NCCNHR is a national nonprofit organization of consumers and advocates who define and achieve quality for people with long-term care needs.
