Greetings I am so glad that you found us here at the National Black Nurses Association (NBNA). From our founding in 1971 to now NBNA is the premier voice for Black nurses. As such we seek to advance healthcare for all communities but with a special emphasis on historically underserved marginalized black and other communities of color. However, NBNA is a place for any nursing professional or nursing student for whom our vision and mission resonates with. Whether you are RN, an LPN/LVN, an advanced practice nurse, or nursing student you are welcome in NBNA. Please take some time to explore our association and all the benefits of joining as a member.
