WELCOME LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER
Dear Board Member,
Welcome to NIAS Support Group Inc., a sanctuary for medical professionals who have
endured the unthinkable at the hands of patients or their families. This organization was
born from lived experience, resilience, and a fierce desire to protect and uplift those who
care for others.
Your role is not symbolic. It is essential. You are joining a mission that carries weight
and truth, the kind of truth that demands courage, compassion, and a steady hand.
Thank you for lending your strength to this cause.
Angela M. Booker, BSN, RN
Founder & President
NIAS Support Group Inc.
Our Mission
NIAS Support Group Inc. exists to protect, uplift, and restore the medical professionals who have endured the blows, the bruises, the threats, and the silent battles of patient and workplace assault. We create a safe haven where nurses and healthcare workers can be heard, healed, educated, and empowered. Through support groups, advocacy, resources, and awareness, we stand as a shield for those who spend their lives caring for others, ensuring they never have to face their trauma alone, and reminding every survivor that their voice, their safety, and their story matter.
Our Vision
We envision a healthcare world where every nurse and medical professional stands protected, respected, and empowered, free from fear, free from silence, and fully supported in their healing. NIAS Support Group Inc. strives for a future where workplace assault is confronted, not ignored; where survivors find community instead of isolation; and where safety, dignity, and compassion are the standard, not the exception. Our vision is a culture of care that finally cares for its caregivers.
