Join us for the

2025 FRONTLINES Leadership Conference

This is more than a conference. It’s a gathering of frontline healthcare workers who are shaping the future of our profession through courageous leadership. Whether you’re a longtime NUHW steward or new to the movement, Frontlines is your place to connect, recharge, and rise up.

In a healthcare system driven by corporate profit, our solidarity is our strength. This confernence is where we sharpen our tools, deepen our commitment, bond with our fellow stewards, and stand united in our fight for dignity, equity, and justice in the workplace and beyond.
