Hopkins Nursing Joins Alliance to Improve Maryland Health

The Johns Hopkins University School of Nursing is addressing Maryland’s growing healthcare needs by joining the Maryland Alliance to Transform the Health Professions.

The Alliance—composed of more than a dozen academic health institutions and historically black colleges and universities in Maryland—is working together with the state’s Department of Health and Mental Hygiene to increase diversity and enrollment at all these schools, with the aim of expanding and diversifying the state’s future healthcare workforce. Through recruitment, faculty exchange, and collaborative research efforts, the group hopes to provide a working model for other states.
