At the state level an annual convention is held for all members of the state organization. The National Student Nurses' Association holds an annual convention. Dues are paid annually and entitle the student to participate in all three levels of activities. KANS provides many opportunities for its members to effect change in professional nursing at the local, state and national levels. All meetings are at noon in the Skills Lab of the McPherson Nurse Education Building.
Lunch is available for a small fee.
The national director, Mary Thompson, and Kansas staff director, Ruth Snapp, work with local chapter facilitators to plan activities. At Pittsburg State University, the chapter currently meets twice a month. Meeting dates are set at the organizational meeting held at the beginning of each semester, and are coordinated so they do not conflict with KANS meetings or other scheduled activities. Members share experiences and fellowship over lunch at most meetings. There are also state and national conferences offered annually.
