The Academy contributes financially to the VCU School of Nursing building fund so that state-of-the-art educational facilities are available for nursing students. Given the current and pending nurse shortage, we believe we are called to help insure that appropriate educational programs and services are available to recruit, train and retain nurses in our area.
