Let’s REPRESENT as a Chapter to support President Sandra Bibb's 2023-2025 Presidential Call to Action. Join and network with the Chapter to become active in representing our practice, research, and scholarship activities.

Each biennium, Sigma installs a new president at the international level. At the 47th Biennial Convention, we proudly installed Sandra C. Garmon Bibb, DNSc, RN, FFNMRCSI, FAAN, and introduced her as the 35th president of Sigma. With influence from the Board of Directors, each president presents a call to action to help guide members and chapters as we strive to fulfill our mission.
