As 2017 unfolded, the American Nurses Association (ANA) and registered nurses around the United States answered challenges of all types.

Nurses advocated to protect access to healthcare; responded to natural disasters and horrific violence; and strengthened our national movement to #EndNurseAbuse.

The 2017 ANA Annual Report highlights some of ANA's accomplishments and activities from the "Year of the Healthy Nurse," including the launch of the Healthy Nurse, Healthy Nation™ Grand Challenge, and other strategic work to improve health for all.
