About the President
A group of Black Nurses attending the 47th American Nurses’ Association Convention in 1970 held a caucus to discuss common concerns. A steering committee met in 1971 in Cleveland, Ohio and organized to investigate, define, and determine the needs of Black Americans and to implement changes in health care. The National Black Nurses Association (NBNA) was incorporated and obtained tax-exempt status in 1972.
It is our commitment to continue to serve as mentors for our future nurses.
