About Us
The Multicultural Nurse Leadership Institute (MNLI) is designed for aspiring nurse leaders who have their bachelor’s degree in nursing and at least two years of experience in full-time nursing practice. MNLI Fellows are chosen through a competitive selection process.
This institute was formerly known as the Minority Nurse Leadership Institute.
Our Purpose
The MNLI curriculum includes a variety of educational strategies for developing leadership knowledge, competence, and outcomes. The 10-month mentored leadership development curriculum is built upon the foundation of three domains:
- Individual nurse leadership development.
- Advancing evidence-based nursing practice to address minority and community health challenges through leadership of team projects.
- Fellows’ expanded scope of influence within their sponsoring institutions, the community, and the profession.
Fellow Requirements
Information about applying for the next cohort beginning in 2023 is coming soon
- Attend and actively participate in 10 monthly Saturday Seminars.
- Select a leadership mentor with the Institute’s assistance and meet monthly.
- Provide leadership for and complete a team project designed to improve evidence-based nursing practice that addresses a selected minority community health challenge.
- Attend end-of-year presentations by Fellows on their team projects.
Nursing contact hours will be awarded to MNLI Fellows upon their completion of the MNLI experience.
