In 2023, the Mississippi Action Coalition and the Nurses on Boards Coalition conducted an inaugural survey to demonstrate the value of nurses serving on governing boards. Developed with a 2022 Health Equity Innovations Fund Award, this survey was the first comprehensive tool to measure the value of nurses on boards, commissions and appointments, and specifically, the impact of nurse trustees on addressing the social determinates of health and leading change on issues of structural racism.

Results of that survey will be released June 5 as part of a webinar/virtual discussion that will examine three key implications of the research findings and identify how nurses serving on governing boards are impacting the social determinants of health.

The presenters are:

• Kimberly Ann Cleveland, PhD, JD, MSN, RN, C-MBC, C-MPC; Board Chair Emeritus, Nurses on Boards Coalition; Associate Professor Kent State University
• Pam Rudisill, DNP, MSN, RN, NEC-BC, FAONL, FAAN; Board Chair Emeritus, Nurses on Boards Coalition; Senior Vice President and Chief Nursing Officer; Community Health System

The webinar will be held June 5, from 4-5 p.m. ET.

It is hosted by the American Association of Nurse Attorneys. There is no registration fee, but registration is required.

This event is approved for Nursing CE with the California Board of Nursing for live or on-demand participation. (This event is not eligible for CLE.)
