About Us
Mission Statement
We lead by example, creating a campus-wide community of politically conscious, technologically savvy, and socially aware nursing students. We foster the transition of the student to the role of the professional nurse through the development of leadership, activism, and advocacy. We support scholarship, volunteerism, and mentorship to influence nursing education and nursing care in California.
