Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments

The Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments (ANHE) is a network of nurses and nursing organizations from around the country (and world) that are acting at the intersection of health and the environment to promote health. We are a group of nurses from all walks of our profession – hospital-based, public health, school-based, academics, students, and advanced practice, to name a few.

Our works aims to harvest, connect, and guide a nursing vanguard as we move the profession forward in promoting healthy environments for all by engaging in environmentally safe practices and health policies. We help to integrate environmental health into nursing education and our many workplaces, incorporate environmental assessments into our patient histories, implement research that addresses environmental health questions, and advocate for environmental health in our workplaces and governmental institutions.
