ANNA chapters have huge potential to work together, and stronger chapters can mentor sister chapters. At the 2009 VLW, attendees split into small groups and answered this question:
How can we mentor sister chapters?
All attendees had an opportunity to view the suggestions made by each group and were asked to select their "Top 10" solutions. Suggestions included ideas like:
- Co-sponsor meeting
- Nurses week activities
- ANNA Connected
- Social icebreakers
- Help plan educational meeting
- Brainstorming with other chapters ideas' - business meetings, minutes published, geographic challenges
