Advancing Health Equity
and Social Justice

We are a school committed to preparing nurses to lead health care transformation and advance health and social equities. We are moving beyond just the characterization of inequities to advancing health and social justice. We are focused on mechanisms that influence social determinants of health, develop impactful nurse-led models of care, and bolster the science of resilience by strengthening the factors and conditions that enable individuals, families, and communities to thrive despite adversity.
