Understanding that inclusion is a constant work in progress, we join our broader campus community in commitment to the maintenance of an environment that honors all members of our broadly diverse body of students, faculty, and staff. In building and maintaining our community, we know that the sum of the parts is greater than the whole and all are welcome here.
There are long-standing disparities in access to equitable and inclusive opportunities and health care among members of underrepresented and marginalized populations in our country. As nurses are lifelong learners, we listen to the needs of our internal and external communities, committed to acquiring the knowledge and skill which enables us to offer equitable nursing care to all persons in our realm of responsibility and beyond, and to be a voice of advocacy in support of accessible, quality of care for all.
