2021-03-30 17:00 - 19:00 | Online Webinar, CO, United States

"The barriers that have been used to keep nurses out of the space program are the same barriers that are used to discourage youth from seeing themselves as an integral part of space reality – especially those in marginalized communities. CCBN Space Talks aims to change that!"

The first CCBN Space Talks session blasts off with a panel discussion from experts in space, education and health industries on Tuesday, March 30, 2021 from 5pm – 6:30pm MT. Stick around for a networking opportunity from 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm MT.

The CCBN Space Talks are a series of action oriented and solution-based conversations that will explore breaking barriers in space discovery for the next generation, and are hosted by the Colorado Council of Black Nurses Inc (CCBN) in a virtual environment.
Tuesday, March 30th is the first in a 6-talk series, taking place every last Tuesday of the month from March – August, culminating with the September launch of the Space Expo! A 5-day virtual assembly focusing on physical and applied sciences for preschool, elementary, middle and high school students, the Space Expo will start September 27, 2021 and culminate on October 1 – the 63rd anniversary of NASA’s opening!
CCBN’s Space Talks and Space Expo is one small step to encourage everyone, however able, to donate or influence the donation of resources so that children can be part of the giant leap for mankind and the greater good. Let’s promote space as a reality for the next generation.

100 Nurses for 100 Legislators: The Faces of Nursing in Colorado
2021-04-05 12:00 - 14:00
What & Who: The Faces of Nursing by the Colorado Nurses Association
When & Where: Monday, April 5, 2021 at 12 noon-2 pm on the Capitol West Steps
Thirty Nurses will represent Colorado Nurses and their profession via 2x3ft posters to remind Legislators
of the 24/7 work done in our communities, both urban and rural, for each Coloradan.
Over 120 Nurses, including 3 CCBN/ECCBN members and 2 former CCBN members, are represented in 20 posters by Nurses of the Colorado Nurses Association (CNA) to recognize the diversity of nurses and our continued presence in every facet of our lives throughout Colorado.
76% of the House and Senate Districts are portrayed in 100 Nurses for 100 Legislators booklets given to
each Legislator on Monday, March 17. This project will be further presented on Monday, April 5 on the
Capitol’s West Steps via the posters held by Nurses. Nurses volunteered for the project by including
their photos with some words of their work as well as noting their House and Senate Districts.
For legislation and regulation, CNA represents Registered Nurses (RN) and Advance Practice Registered
Nurses (APRN) including Certified Nurse Specialists, Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists, Certified
Nurse Midwives, and Nurse Practitioners. Within our profession, Nurses are associated and certified in
over 100 specialties, educated to levels of doctorates, and are encouraged to continually stay up-to-date
with the cares, treatments and medications.
Masks, which say "Great Colorado Nurse" were donated by CCBN Founder Dr. Margie Cook APRN and were specially designed and dedicated for this day with the recognition of our roles in
maintaining ‘health by example.’ The group volunteering to hold the posters is limited to 30 nurses to maintain physical distancing while personally hold their colleagues in esteem and acknowledgement for our diversity, commitment, and perseverance.

CCBN Space Talk #2: Nurses In Space
2021-04-27 17:00 - 19:00 | Online Webinar, CO, United States
In the 1950's the first NASA Nurse dreamed of going into space... She never made it there, nor has any NASA nurse that followed her. Today, as the most trusted and versatile professionals in the world, nurses are classified by NASA as "non-qualifying" for space even though astronauts are indebted to their care. This month's featured panelist, Starr Schroeder, Registered Nurse and PoSSUM Astronaut Candidate, aims to break that barrier! Let's further the conversation about the necessity for nurses in space - not just in space support - and use what we discover to promote space for the next generation.

Join us and a panel of health industry experts on our mission to introduce students to space as a real possibility!
"The barriers that have been used to keep nurses out of the space program are the same barriers that are used to discourage youth from seeing themselves as an integral part of space reality – especially those in marginalized communities. CCBN Space Talks aims to change that!"
The second CCBN Space Talks session propels the mission to promote space for the next generation on Tuesday, April 27, 2021 from 5pm – 6:30pm MT. Stick around for a networking opportunity from 6:30 pm - 7:00 pm MT.

CCBN Space Talks #3: Teachers and Space
2021-05-25 17:00 - 19:00 | Webinar
This month's featured panelist represents how a teacher can contribute to the success or the destruction of a child's innovation and space dreams as early as elementary school. Aerospace Engineer and Educator Valerie Brown Gill was told by her third grade teacher that she would amount to nothing because she read slow; however, thanks to her tenacity, a strong parent support system, and the advantage of being a slow reader, Valerie was able to graduate from a 5 year engineering program in 3.5 years and went on to pursue her space dreams as an officer in the US Air Force at Edwards Air Force Base, during the time of and at the location of the historic Enterprise landings. Hear her story and think tank with other passionate educators to further the conversation about the influence on educators in fostering the ingenuity and talents of their students. Let's use what we discover to promote space for the next generation.

Join us and a panel of expert educators in elementary through graduate school on our mission to introduce students to space as a real possibility!
