Student Nurses' Association

Student Nurses' Association Mission Statement

To help develop the whole person in their professional role and responsibility for the healthcare of people in all walks of life. Also, to influence healthcare, while promoting and encouraging participation in community affairs.

Activities

The Student Nurses’ Association (SNA) is open to students in the Registered Nurse (RN) Program at CSCC. All RN students are welcome and encouraged to join. SNA  allows students throughout the RN program to fellowship with and support one another. Students have the opportunity to develop leadership skills by serving as an officer in the organization. 

SNA participates in multiple services activities each year, often hosting supply drives for community organizations. We host fundraisers (bake sales, shirt/sweatshirt sales, etc.) to raise money to assist with the RN Pinning Ceremony. Students who participate in the required number of service activities are recognized at the pinning ceremony. 

Meetings

All RN students are welcome and encouraged to join SNA. Students can sign up to join SNA via CougarConnect on the Cscc.edu website. Students may also contact the organization advisors (Jill Ritchey and Alison Romanowski) or officers to join. SNA meeting times and locations are posted to CougarConnect and also communicated via email to students who are part of the organization. Students who are considering joining SNA are invited to attend a meeting or other organization activity if they would like.  Please see CougarConnect at https://connect.cscc.edu/ for further information.

The CSCC SNA organization is part of the larger National Student Nurses Association (NSNA). Students can join the NSNA at https://nsnamembership.org/
