We would like to invite you to attend our 2023 2nd Annual Gunter-Gooding DEI Lecture Series! Dr. Lucinda Canty is our keynote speaker, who is a researcher and an artist, whose focus is maternal health. Hence her topic: "Addressing the Maternal Health Crisis Through Nursing Research and Education." This important topic is vital for raising awareness of the crisis many women face especially women of color. Her artwork, which she graciously allowed us to indicate in our flyer, is an extension of her research. This art piece is titled: "Justice for Black Moms".

For attendees interested in the in-person option, after the event you will have the opportunity to digitally obtain your contact hours. Virtual attendees will receive a link via email after the event to complete the contact hour requirement.

Participants with a valid RN license that attend the entire Nursing Continuing Professional Development program (NCPD), can earn 1.0 contact hours; partial contact hours are not awarded. Penn State Ross and Carol Nese College of Nursing is approved with distinction as a provider of nursing continuing professional development by Pennsylvania State Nurses Association Approver Unit, an accredited approver by the American Nurses Credentialing Center’s Commission on Accreditation.
