How is the ana governed?

The American Nurses Association (ANA) is governed by a Board of Directors, which consists of elected nurse leaders who represent various specialties and practice areas. The organization operates under a set of bylaws that outline its mission, goals, and operational procedures. Additionally, the ANA engages its members through various councils and committees that provide input on policy and practice issues. This governance structure ensures that the ANA effectively advocates for nurses and the nursing profession at large.
