Who We Are

ASAN is the only national professional nursing society with full membership open to ALL nurses who work in the field of addictions; have a special interest in working effectively with this population; and/or who are in recovery.

ASAN’s focus is on advocacy and support, not only for the clients we serve, but the nurses who give of themselves everyday to improve the lives of those they serve. Whether you work in a treatment center/clinic, Medication Assisted Therapy (MAT), a hospital, or the community, we are all joined by our never wavering commitment to care for those suffering from addictions.

ASAN believes every nurse is an addictions nurse. Addictions pervades our society and our treatment environments. We invite you to learn more about our society and how together we can educate and engage nurses across all specialties.
