One year after the release of the Future of Nursing 2030 report, we will convene to take stock of the work done so far and consider the road ahead of nurses charting a path to achieve health equity.

We will share how the Campaign intends to promote opportunities to help you engage and guide your work moving forward. Tools and resources will be provided to assist you with implementing the National Academy of Medicine’s recommendations to achieve health equity in the U.S. built on strengthened nursing capacity and expertise. The event will feature speakers including chief executive officers of nursing organizations working to advance equity and leaders helping to address structural racism in nursing.

This event will include the Campaign’s state-based Action Coalition leaders, nurses, other health care providers and leaders from business, government, unions, policy, education, consumer, and social justice organizations.

The objectives for the summit include:

• Celebrate the first-year anniversary of the release of the Future of Nursing 2020-2030: Charting a Path to Health Equity;
• Review progress from the field pertaining to the report recommendations;
• Energize existing stakeholders and engage new partners; and
• Promote opportunities for engagement.
