This walk brings together individuals to support the Kentucky Nurses Association (KNA) and nurses across Kentucky who serve as leaders to promote positive healthcare in the Commonwealth.
The walk provides a unique opportunity to network with fellow community members, raise awareness about the critical role nurses play in healthcare, and support the future of nursing through essential fundraising efforts. Together, we can make a difference for nurses and the communities they serve!
