About the company
National League For Nursing, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization headquartered in Washington, D.C., acts as a prime recipient of federal grants focused on nursing workforce development and recruitment, with minimal subcontract activity (98% prime awards). The organization does not hold federal contracts or contract vehicles; its federal footprint consists entirely of grants from health and labor agencies.
NLN's primary recent work centers on nursing home workforce development. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services awarded a Cooperative Agreement dated August 1, 2026, with $1,462,572 obligated (drawn from a requested five-year budget of $70,538,881 running through July 31, 2031) under the Nursing Home Staffing Campaign (CFDA 93.693). Under this award, NLN recruits licensed practical nurses and registered nurses and provides them financial incentives up to $50,000 per nurse to work in nursing homes for a minimum of three years following graduation. Project deliverables include a recruitment webpage, two recruitment videos, a project pamphlet, two webinars on resume building and interview skills, and a learning and diffusion network delivering quarterly webinars on best practices for nursing home recruitment and retention. Work is performed throughout the United States.
NLN's federal award footprint spans 108 total awards dating back to 1990, but activity is sparse and episodic. The last five years show only four awards (one in 2025, one in 2026, and isolated activity in 2012 and 2017), with combined potential value across all awards of $36 thousand but $1.7 million in total obligated dollars — a ratio reflecting CMS's upfront obligation of the cooperative agreement. Customer concentration is minimal; the top five agencies account for only 6% of awards and 8% of combined potential value, split across Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Department of Labor, Veterans Affairs, the Health Resources and Services Administration, and the National Institute for Minority Health and Health Disparities. As a sub-recipient, NLN received awards from the University of Cincinnati in March 2025 and August 2025 under Education and Research Center activities. Procurement categories skew heavily toward educational and training materials and print publications (PSC codes spanning Books and Pamphlets, Education/Training categories, and Miscellaneous Printed Matter), reflecting NLN's mission as a nursing education and advocacy organization rather than a service contractor.
