NurseStrong Expo is a grassroots movement to reclaim the recognition nurses deserve. Our mission is to unite the nursing community, spotlight the strength behind every shift, and create spaces where appreciation is more than a slogan—it's a shared experience. Together, we're rewriting what it means to be valued in healthcare.
Watch our founder share the real story behind NurseStrong Expo and why nurses like you need this now.
Ready to join your community?

As an RN for over 20 years, I've seen nursing change dramatically. One thing that's shifted significantly is the lack of support nurses face, especially amid today's healthcare challenges.
During COVID, we were called healthcare heroes—but the truth is, we've always been heroes. Yet our only "appreciation" has been pizza parties and ice cream.
I started NurseStrong Expo to remind nurses: every action you take matters. Even beyond CPR, you're saving lives daily. People in the community know nurses always have been—and always will be—heroes. This is your space to feel truly seen and valued.
