The Association of Nurses in Substance Abuse was formed in 1983 as an interest group for nurses working in drug and alcohol services. ANSA acts as an advisory service to health and social care bodies and institutions, imparting specialist information on drug and alcohol related issues to the government and a number of advisory committees. ANSA activities include local one and two day conferences and training events, regular branch meetings with speakers, discussions and social events throughout the UK.
