TAKE ACTION
Join fearless nurses across the country fighting for health justice.
Rooting out racism requires a multi-tiered approach. Some are treating the schools. Others are treating the workplaces. They’re all treating each other. But it will take everyone standing up and speaking out to heal racism’s harms.
Nursing — after all — is shared work.

This film was made to be a rallying cry, reminding us that healing from racism in healthcare is a collective responsibility that transcends individual professions and identities. Add your voice to help us spread it far and wide.
There’s not racist or not racist. Woke or not woke. We are all on a developmental journey that is informed by our experiences.

MOVEMENT
STAND UP & SPEAK OUT
It takes all of our voices to make a difference. #StartYourShift
Public health is about more than medicine. It’s about ensuring that a person is healthy inside and outside of hospital walls.
But when patients leave with a running list of prescriptions they can’t afford and no real path forward, what happens? Too often, as Kenya Beard explains, they come right back.
This National Public Health Week, let’s push for systems that don’t just treat, but support patients … because healthcare doesn’t stop at hospital doors.

April Fool’s? We wish these headlines were a joke.
While these policies put lives at risk, there’s still power in being vocal, taking action, and the individual choices we make every day to fight for health equity. Even small things—like sharing information, speaking up and staying engaged—can help push back. Swipe to see what’s happening and where to start.

Note: This video includes honest conversation about genitalia in the context of a trans person`s healthcare experiences.
On this Transgender Day of Visibility, we celebrate the lives and contributions of trans people—and acknowledge the barriers they still face in healthcare.
It`s crucial that as healthcare workers, we create welcoming, affirming environments where patients feel safe to receive the care they need, including preventative care. Thank you for sharing your story, @pinkmantaray. Let’s keep pushing for more inclusive care for all.

Mentorship is the spark that ignites change—and it starts with believing in the potential of others. That’s something that Dr. Peggy Chin and Dr. Lucinda Canty can attest to personally.
When we see ourselves in those who mentor us, we feel like we belong. We believe we can reach new heights. Mentorship isn’t just about guidance; it’s about creating pathways to success and opening doors to a brighter, more diverse future.

During Patient Safety Week, let’s remember safety isn’t just about protocols—it’s about dignity, respect and compassion.
Dr. Lucinda Canty will never forget the moment she saw inequities in care firsthand—a patient, much like her grandmother, left neglected while others received salon visits.
It wasn’t just about hair; it was about unequal treatment and denied humanity. Every patient deserves care that is not only safe but truly equitable.

From quiet acts of care to bold acts of courage, women have been central to shaping the destiny of the world. Their power lies not only in what they do but in the vision they carry and the change they inspire.
This #InternationalWomensDay, we honor women who, like Audre Lorde, have dared to speak their truth and ignite change. ��
Lorde, who described herself as a “Black, lesbian, mother, warrior, poet” used her voice to challenge injustice, celebrate resilience, and ignite courage. Through her powerful words, she inspired generations to embrace their truths and transform fear into strength. Lorde’s unwavering advocacy for equity, self-expression, and collective care continues to echo in movements for liberation today. 💜
