Stories like this remind us why the work we do here matters. The skills students build in our nursing and healthcare programs go far, sometimes further than any of us could imagine.
We're proud to be part of a system that prepares nurses ready for whatever the world asks of them. 💙
Club members spent the day connecting with community members, sharing information about Great Bay at their table during this vibrant community event.
Thank you to Portsmouth Pride for bringing together so many organizations, advocates, students, families, and allies for a day of celebration and community.
