Advocacy is one of the strategic issues identified in ANNA's Strategic Plan. ANNA is a leading advocate for nephrology nursing and advocates on behalf of individuals, families, and communities affected by kidney disease. ANNA works closely with partners in the kidney and nursing communities to raise awareness about kidney disease and to educate federal policymakers about the vital role nurses play in patient care. In addition to information about its direct activities in health policy, ANNA maintains a reference of broader issues affecting nephrology, including information about the Advancing American Kidney Health initiative.
