Is the PIN program only interested in projects that create more registered nurses to alleviate current shortages?
We are most interested in proposals that create meaningful and sustainable change in the nursing workforce in the United States. This may mean supporting projects that recruit and retain qualified nursing educators or that focus on aligning nursing curriculum and clinical experience. Likewise this program seeks to increase the racial, ethnic and gender diversity of the nursing workforce. We believe that investments made through this program can also strengthen the competency of nurses to provide patient-centered care and to expand nurses’ role in improving health care quality and safety. Foundations may also seek to support programs to develop nurses as leaders in the changing healthcare systems of the 21st Century.
