Our Commitment
The Center's journey to create a more diverse and inclusive nursing workforce began when we convened a group of key stakeholders to begin the conversation. Our commitment today, and always, is to address health disparities in our diverse and underserved communities by actively working to build a more diverse healthcare workforce.
Our commitment goes beyond the Colorado healthcare workforce and is a part of our core principles. We know we must walk the talk.
The Center’s focus is building and enabling a healthy nursing workforce. Our programs offer pathways to practice through training, professional development and access to resources and support. Check back often as we have multiple new opportunities throughout the year.
