| The Socialization to Success in Nursing
(SOS) Project is a funded Nursing Workforce Diversity initiative.(

The primary objective of the SOS Project

and offer them opportunities to participate in various activities
that are designed to inspire them to pursue a career in nursing.

year. However, only two of the programs will be accepting applications,
the Saturday Nursing Academy (SNA) and the Summer Nursing Immersion
Program (SNIP). The SNA is for 11th and 12th grade students
and it meets one Saturday each month from September-April, 10:00
a.m.-2:00 p.m. Applications are currently available. |
