About this chapter

The Canadian Black Nurses Alliance Western Chapter is devoted to bringing awareness to racial inequality in healthcare, providing resources to Black nurses that will help them to overcome such inequality, and creating a supportive community in which undergraduate and graduate Black nurses can mentally, academically, and socially thrive. We value the empowerment and confidence instilled in Black students when they know they have a community cheering them on.

Our chapter is determined to provide social, financial, and academic support tuned to the Black experience as we collaborate with other CBNA Chapters and Black clubs at Western to reach as many Black nurses and students as possible. We aspire to establish pillars of appreciated vulnerability, social justice, emotional validation, and academic and career success within our Black community. We are incredibly grateful that CBNA has provided the opportunity to do so.
