NOTE: The IFNA Communication and Education Committees have been longing to invite IFNA family nursing educators to share their family nursing course syllabi through the IFNA website. However, course materials are generally protected by institutional copyright. In an unprecedented exception, Red River College in Canada has offered approval for Course Leader, Wilma Schroeder to offer her Family Nursing Lab Manual to IFNA members.
