The GCNNCA officially started in 1995. The chapter consists of a Board of Directors elected by the membership, and officers selected from the board of directors. Membership: Open to all Navy nurses, active and former active duty, retired and reserve, residing in Northwest Florida, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. Meetings: The chapter membership meets three times a year, April, August and November. Chapter Dues: GCNNCA dues are $15 per year, payable with annual NNCA dues. Chapter Mission/Projects: GCNNCA participates in the Memorial Day Ceremony at the Pensacola Naval Base, the local Veterans Day Parade, and networks with the local chapter of Women of the Sea Services Waves. Ongoing projects include recording the history of chapter members, fund raising, and recognition of chapter members for their contributions to the chapter, the NNCA and their communities. The GCNNCA annually awards a scholarship to a deserving future Navy nurse or active duty Navy nurse working on their nursing education on their own time. The chapter considers applications from hospital corpsmen working on their undergraduate degree in nursing and planning to join the Navy Nurse Corps.
