HOPE Leadership Challenge

HOPEHOPE grows when nurses lead!

Nephrology nurses provide HOPE ~ Helping Others through Positive Empowerment.

ANNA hosted the HOPE Leadership Challenge during the months of May, June, July, and August 2022. Each month a different ANNA member was showcased to demonstrate how nurses lead. ANNA members were encouraged to participate by completing a “challenge” that corresponded with the focus area for the month – leadership, health policy, research, and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).

Thank you to all who participated in this initiative. Congratulations to the winners of the gift cards that were presented to random participants each month!
