The TNP Foundation (TNPF) Emergency Assistance Fund was first established in 2017 as a result of the extensive damage left behind by Hurricane Harvey. In an effort to provide some assistance, the Texas Nurse Practitioner Foundation established an Emergency Assistance Fund to aid TNP members and their families in need.

TNP Members Impacted by the Central Texas Floods 

Any current TNP member or immediate family member living in the same household who has been impacted by the Central Texas Floods may apply for assistance from the TNPF Emergency Assistance Fund.
