At IPS, we believe eliminating health inequities is the winning solution our nation needs on health reform. Our 2025 National Health Inequities Survey shows the US public largely agrees —challenging narratives that say there is more that separates us than binds us: https://bit.ly/4ulH4Oz
IPS 2025 National Health Inequities Survey findings challenge narratives the US is too divided. A crucial insight from the report is a majority of the public agrees eliminating health inequities to repair our broken U.S. health system is the winning solution we all need: https://bit.ly/4ulH4Oz

The unrecognized US Latino HIV Cascading Disaster has worsened for more than 10 years even as we’ve made progress overall in reducing new infections.

Proposed federal changes to nursing degrees will make it more difficult for people from economically disadvantaged backgrounds to afford nursing school and careers in nursing, impacting workforce representation & staffing shortages. Thanks @mississippitoday.org for this story: t.jh.edu/KNo5iz
Americans continue to rank nurses as the most trusted profession in 2026, reports Gallup. But we're still too rarely seen as leading voices in shaping health & health care. Designing, elevating, & implementing nurse-led solutions is therefore key to eliminating health inequities: t.jh.edu/ZtPckB
The U.S. Department of Education’s proposed framework to reclassify nursing degrees holds challenging implications for nursing, workforce representation, and the health of people across the U.S. Thanks to Medpage Today for reporting on the potential impacts of this action: t.jh.edu/30fCfE
