SPN 36th Annual Conference Location Notice
Last Updated: 9/9/25
In light of recent news that Florida state officials have announced their intentions to end vaccination requirements, SPN acknowledges the concerns of pediatric nurses about attending the SPN 36th Annual Conference April 27-29, 2026 in Orlando, Florida. Several factors are taken into consideration when selecting the location of the SPN Annual Conference with the goal of bringing this education and networking experience to as many people as possible. To alter or cancel the agreement would be at a significant financial risk to the organization that would impact our ability to continue to deliver the resources and education you’ve come to expect from SPN. The Board and Program Planning Committee are committed to creating guidelines and programming at the conference that will reflect SPN’s core values and create a safe and rewarding experience for all involved. Our unwavering commitment to pediatric nursing excellence is the top priority and we will not compromise those standards.
The Society of Pediatric Nurses (SPN) opposes the decision of the Florida Surgeon General, and we reaffirm our position on the importance of childhood immunizations.
