Trent University Chapter

Along with the CBNA national, CBNA-Trent promotes the welfare and interests of Black nursing students at Trent University through the provision of support, activities, publications, social forums and events. It additionally acts as a bridge between students and faculty; providing insights into cultural competency that can be applied in the classroom and clinical settings. At its core, it serves as a safe space for Black nursing students to come together and discuss their difficulties, successes, and experiences, both in and out of the classroom. CBNA-Trent events often center around much-needed mentorship from Black nursing professionals and increasing awareness of issues faced by Black nurses & nursing students. Through executive and committee roles, CBNA-Trent members may partake in invaluable, real-world opportunities to practice leadership skills that allow them to gain confidence and expertise.
