ABLE SCHOLARS

Advancing BIPOC Learning & Engagement

Nursing Progression Project
Funded by Human Resources & Services Administration

ABLE Scholars offers a community of support for students from Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) backgrounds to progress from pre-licensure associate degree in nursing (ADN) programs to RN-BSN to Master of Nursing and the DNP or PhD particularly in the advanced practice areas of nursing education and public health. Our collective community network aims to build capacity with multicultural nursing organizations to mentor BIPOC students and nurses.
