Represents Certified Registered Nurse Anesthesiologists (CRNAs) and residents across the United States, advancing the practice, education, research and advocacy of nurse anesthesiology.
American Association of Nurse Anesthetists channels much of its giving back into the nurse anesthesiology field through association infrastructure, state advocacy, research, and education. The largest recent grant in the data, $530,000 in 2025, went to American Association of Nurse Anetheisits Foundation for AANA management services, showing that the foundation supports internal and affiliated organizational capacity as well as outside programs. Another major commitment was $500,000 to Council on Accreditation in 2023 for general support, indicating sustained backing for institutions that shape training and standards in the profession. The foundation also funds state and national professional organizations across the country. Recent grants include $400,000 to Crna Pac in 2025 for general support and $114,000 to Illinois Association of Nurse Anesthetists in 2025 for general support. Alongside those association grants, it supports scholarships, DEI education, and research programs tied to nurse anesthesia practice and patient care. The pattern is consistent with a member-serving funder focused on the profession’s governance, policy work, and workforce pipeline.
A major theme is association and advocacy support. The foundation awarded $400,000 to Crna Pac in 2025 for general support, and it also has an open-submission State Advocate Program for state-level advocacy and training. Research is another clear priority. The High-Priority Health Services and Policy Research Grant funds projects on health services and policy questions relevant to nurse anesthesia and patient care, and the Research Program Grant supports anesthesia science and related research priorities. Education and workforce development appear in the grant portfolio as well. The DEI Education Grant supports diversity, equity, and inclusion education initiatives, while Resident Scholarships provide support for CRNA residents. The State-Academic Partnership Research Grant further connects state organizations and academic institutions around state-priority questions in anesthesia practice and policy.
