Abstract
Background: Diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) are essential in advanced practice education to address systemic racism and health inequities. The American Association of Colleges of Nursing's (AACN) The Essentials: Core Competencies for Professional Nursing Education highlight nursing's role in addressing these challenges and developed a DEI toolkit.
Method: A symposium was created for nurse practitioner faculty to explore DEIB integration using case studies based on anti-DEIB legislation. Participants applied the AACN DEI Toolkit across institutional viability, access, climate, and education.
Results: Participant feedback indicated high satisfaction, with increased awareness of anti-DEIB legislation and improved knowledge of the AACN DEI Toolkit. Informal debriefing revealed varying levels of readiness to address DEIB challenges.
Conclusion: Addressing structural racism in nursing education requires strategies and collaboration. The AACN DEI Toolkit provides a foundation for integrating DEIB into nursing curricula, promoting equitable, culturally competent health care. This initiative is crucial for preparing advanced practice nursing graduates to meet the evolving needs of diverse populations. [J Nurs Educ. 2025;64(X):XXX-XXX.].
