Mission
The National Anemia Action Council (NAAC) is dedicated to raising the awareness of health care professionals and the public regarding the prevalence, symptoms, consequences, and under-treatment of anemia.

Board of Directors
First convened in November 2000, the National Anemia Action Council (NAAC) is comprised of more than 20 leading health care providers who are experts in identifying and treating anemia. Their specialties include hematology, nephrology, oncology, cardiology, critical care, rheumatology, gastroenterology, surgery, internal medicine, and nursing.

Goals
Anemia is a public health concern that requires concerted attention and action. To that end, NAAC's objectives are to provide a scientific forum to foster a cross-disciplinary approach in furtherance of the understanding and raising of professional and public awareness of anemia, its consequences and treatment options and as it relates to other disease; to promote a better understanding of the shared pathophysiology of anemia; and to foster the development of new therapeutic approaches and to provide advocacy in public policy issues with respect to the above.
