Diversity is increasing within the U.S. population; however, the
nursing profession continues to lag in recruitment and retention of
nurses representing the residents of the communities they serve. As
communities diversify, the nursing profession must rise to the
challenge of truly representing their communities. Journey to
Equity: Strengthening the Nursing Profession provides an historic
perspective through the personal stories of nurses with diverse
racial, gender, cultural, and ethnic backgrounds. These nurses
share their unique journeys and their recommendations for the
future. Journey to Equity will help readers see the nursing
community through the eyes of their peers who have different
backgrounds and identities. Each chapter follows the experience of
a different nurse, how they came to the profession, the unique
challenges they faced, and the lessons they learned as they
advanced in their career. These narratives will provide critical
insight into diversity, inclusion, and equity for nurses who are
leading change and improvement in healthcare now and in the future.
