AARP Hearing Center
The AARP Center for Health Equity through Nursing (the Center) was founded to align nurse leadership and consumer voices to end structural barriers to health and well-being. It serves as a vehicle for change, hosting specific programs and activities that align with AARP’s health equity priorities, including the Center to Champion Nursing in America, an initiative of AARP Foundation, AARP, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. Leveraging national and state coalitions, the Center promotes scalable solutions for systems change that advance healthy equity nationwide.
Health Equity Innovation Awards
To help improve access to care and services for those most disproportionately impacted by disparities, the AARP Center for Health Equity through Nursing and the Future of Nursing: Campaign for Action, an initiative of AARP Foundation, AARP, and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), awarded more than $700,000 to 16 projects offering promising solutions aimed at eliminating structural inequities, particularly structural racism, within the nursing profession, health systems, or community.
