Some community health nurses are represented by unions such as the American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees. Nurses can join the Association of Community Health Nursing Educators, American Public Health Association, Alliance of Nurses for Healthy Environments, and Visiting Nurse Association. The American Association of Colleges of Nursing represents more than 875 member schools of nursing; these schools offer a mix of baccalaureate, graduate, and post-graduate programs. The American Nurses Credentialing Center provides certification.
