The CASN Awards

The annual CASN Awards recognize the hard work, creativity, and passion of the members of Canada’s schools of nursing.

CASN is committed to equity and diversity and welcomes nominations of persons across a diversity of gender identities, gender expressions, sexual orientations, Indigenous identities, racialized identities, and disabilities and/or neurodivergences.
