The JFWW will host a聽series of five webinars聽focused on topics from generational differences of veterans and service members to incorporating veteran and military health into the health professions curricula. AACNmember, Dr. Kent Blad, Associate Dean and Teaching Professor at Brigham Young University College of Nursing, will be one of the featured presenters. Dr. Blad has presented for AACNon a number of military health initiatives and is a leading expert for the profession. Additionally, AACNhas supported JFWW by serving as one of the three continuing education providers for the five webinars, which will help to ensure maximum engagement by nursing professionals.听

The momentum for JFWW began after First Lady Michelle Obama and Dr. Jill Biden established the Joining Forces initiative in 2011 to mobilize all sectors of society to focus on areas that support the employment, education, and wellness of our nation's service men and women while also raising awareness about their needs and sacrifices.听Since 2012, AACNhas been working with our nation's nursing schools to rally support for the Joining Forces initiative, educate nursing students, and grow the body of knowledge to ensure the best possible care for those in the military. Over 660 schools in all 50 states and the District of Columbia have committed to championing this work.听听聽
