ANAC Committees comprise one of the major structural units of the organization. ANAC's Operational Manual further describe in more detail ANAC's Standing, Regular, Specialty Committees and Task Forces.
Standing Committees

The only exception is for members of the Nominations committee who can serve on one other standing or regular committee.
Regular Committees

Specialty Committees
Purpose: To provide a forum for a group of members who share a common interest in an area related to the fulfillment of the Association’s mission to network and address issues relevant to the group. Groups may present proposals to the Board for projects/programs that assist in achieving the goals of the Association as specified in the Association’s strategic plan. Specialty committees currently include, but are not limited to: Diversity, HIV-Positive Nurses, Global HIV Nursing, Palliative Care and Rural and Frontier Nursing.
Task Forces
Task Forces are developed by the ANAC Board of Directors to complete specific tasks that fulfill the mission of the organization, to carry out directives of an adopted resolution, or to assist in program advancement. Development of a Task Force can be requested by any member of ANAC. The number and type of task forces varies according to need.
