Overview and metadata sections
Founded in 1987, The Association of Nurses in AIDS Care (ANAC) is the leading nursing organization responding to HIV/AIDS. ANAC’s mission is to promote the individual and collective professional development of nurses involved in the delivery of health care to persons infected or affected by HIV as well as to promote the health and welfare of infected persons. They strive to do by creating an effective network among nurses in AIDS care; studying, researching and exchanging information, experiences, and ideas leading to improved care for persons with AIDS/HIV infection; providing leadership to the nursing community in matters related to HIV/AIDS infection; advocating for HIV-infected persons; and promoting social awareness concerning issues related to HIV/AIDS. ANAC is made up of more than 40 chapters located around the world. It comprises a dedicated group of nurses, healthcare professionals and others from around the world who are committed to HIV/AIDS nursing. These affiliate members include social workers, pharmacists, physician assistants, lawyers and doctors; i.e. anyone involved in the care and support of people with HIV and/or AIDS.
