The Nursing Innovations Fund | Campaign for Action

The Nursing Innovations Fund program awards creative, replicable, and promising solutions for improving health equity through nursing and access to care and services for those most disproportionately impacted by health disparities. Since 2018, we have awarded over $1.8 million across 30 states and DC, funding 63 projects that improve access to care and services, strengthen and diversify the nursing workforce, and create healthier work environments.
