Leveraging a funding collaborative to develop more PhD prepared nurse scientists and leaders

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF) (rwjf.org) believes that nurses are critical to improving the health and well-being of all Americans and building a Culture of Health and health equity in the United States. RWJF has supported nursing practice, education, research, policy, and leadership development since its founding almost 50 years ago. To date, the Foundation has provided about $500M in financial support through many programs. While RWJF was most often the sole funder of many of these programs, the Foundation has also joined with others, including regional and national philanthropy, the federal government, health systems and insurers, health related organizations, business, and private donors to create a larger and more sustained impact on particularly challenging nursing, health, and health care issues.
