Abstract

The overall focus of the NINR Health Disparities Strategic Plan is to provide leadership in emphasizing the inclusion of cultural and ethnic considerations throughout the areas of scientific inquiry within NINR's domain, and leadership in its research training and infrastructure development, and community outreach. The focus of its research areas of opportunity on health promotion activities and chronic illness management enable leadership in support of culturally sensitive interventions to decrease health disparities among groups. Historically, nursing research has had a major focus on minority health. NINR's research training and infrastructure goals focus on enhancing the development of nurse researchers through training, and developing research infrastructure in schools of nursing, with a specific emphasis on preparing minority nurse researchers. NINR=s community outreach goals focus on obtaining input and recommendations from nurse associations for research, infrastructure, and subject participation.
