The NLC allows nurses to have one multistate license, with the ability to practice in their home state and other compact states. The NLC increases access to care while maintaining public protection at the state level.

Take action to bring the NLC to your state.

The APRN Compact allows an advanced practice registered nurse to hold one multistate license with a privilege to practice in other compact states. The APRN Compact will be implemented when 10 states have enacted the legislation.

Take action and support the APRN Compact.
