American Nurses Association is proud to co-sponsor a national awards program to recognize nurses who are helping lead the way to health equity through practice, education, research, or leadership.

Five awardees in separate categories will receive $1,000 each, plus paid travel to a reception on September 10 in Baltimore, where they will be recognized before an audience of national nursing leaders and educators at Coppin State University.

The AARP Center for Health Equity through Nursing^SM and the Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action, an initiative of AARP Foundation, AARP, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, are hosting the awards program.  The deadline to apply is April 30. We hope you will consider applying, nominating someone, or sharing word of the program with others who may be interested. Learn more here. Read about last year’s awardees
