In case you missed it: In January 2023, the AARP Center for Health Equity through Nursing and the Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) awarded more than $700,000 to projects across the nation. These projects were ones offering promising solutions aimed at:
eliminating structural inequities, particularly structural racism, within the nursing profession, health systems, or community, and for projects that help improve access to care and services for those most disproportionately impacted by health disparities. - Campaign for Action Press Release
