Project Accomplishments:

New Jersey has advanced nursing education by supporting development of new academic progression pathways. The project emphasizes inclusive practices and was informed through collaboration with leaders of key multicultural nursing organizations across New Jersey. The project leaders developed a role for bilingual nurses as nurse navigators who could help potential students explore a nursing career and overcome hurdles that affected the rate of enrollment of minority nursing students. The project included developing a social media app that provides information about a career in nursing.
