2021 Nina M. Nolcox Nursing Scholarship
for Continuing Education

The purpose of the Nina M. Nolcox Nursing Scholarship is to award a qualified nurse, employed by a CAADS member, a paid registration to attend CAADS educational conferences along with a stipend of $750 to cover related expenses. Nina Nolcox, RN, PHN, was a visionary in public health nursing who channeled her knowledge, passion and skills to helping low income adults with chronic health conditions living in underserved communities maintain their independence and dignity as they aged. Nina was a fierce advocate for adult day services and her community up until her final days when she succumbed to breast cancer after a valiant fight. Nina often said that she found her passion and professional home in adult day services after working in many nursing settings.
