The National Student Nursing Association is a national student nurse organization found in 50 states and has over 60,000 members. The goal of NSNA is to create a platform where all students preparing for their initial licensure as registered nurses and those pursuing their baccalaureates can be mentored, preparing them to lead the profession in the future. In addition to that, NSNA serves for an advocate for nursing education advancement. NSNA holds an annual convention and mid-year national conferences to discuss issues pertaining to the profession and what improvements can be made.
