ANAC2025 Special Events

Conference is always full of great topics and amazing speakers, but we also take time to enjoy each other, remember those that aren't with us and celebrate our peers. We hope to see you at the Celebration of Life, Awards Celebration and Annual Gala in Philadelphia this year.

Town Hall

Friday, Nov. 7 | 6:15 p.m.

Town Halls are part of ANAC’s commitment to creating space for open dialogue, collective learning and mutual support. These open talks focus on the impact of current political and policy shifts on our members’ lives, work and well-being. We want to hear from about how these changes are affecting your nursing research, clinical services and the communities you serve.
