The American Association of Colleges of Nursing (AACN) is pleased to announce that the Johnson & Johnson Campaign for Nursing's Future (J&J) is launching a new national scholarship program designed to increase the number of nurse faculty from ethnic minority backgrounds. The J&J-AACN Minority Nurse Faculty Scholars program will provide financial assistance to underrepresented minority (URM) nursing students to facilitate the completion of graduate programs and diversify the nurse faculty population. AACN's latest data show that only 10.5 percent of full-time nurse faculty come from URM backgrounds.
