Breakthrough to Nursing (BTN)
• The primary goal of NSNA’s Breakthrough to Nursing Project is to increase the number of qualified students enrolled in and graduated from nursing schools.
• The BTN Project was started in 1965 to address NSNA’s concerns regarding national issues which remain relevant today:
• Recruitment and retention
• Minority recruitment
• Men in the profession
• Young students
• Non-traditional students
• Mentoring and support of all enrolled in professional nursing programs

Voice Your Opinions
• Lizzette Chavez (Michigan – BTN Director):
“The biggest problem I am currently facing as the state level BTN director is a lack of guidance or mentorship.”
• Jennie Nguyen (Kansas – BTN Director):
“In Kansas it has been a challenge to get responses from schools that we have reached out to. Locally, it has been a challenge to encourage participation from students and support from faculty because the benefits of being active weren't clear in the past.”
• Daniel Duron (California – BTN Committee Member):
"Obstacles: this is at a local level but the lack of volunteers make hard for BTN Projects to follow through."

THANK YOU!
• I like to thank Cathy, Adam, and Sabrina for being part of this journey. I wouldn’t know what I would do without them.
• I also would like to thank Lizzette, Jennie, and Daniel for their astute perspectives from a BTN standpoint.
• “I learned that your nursing journey doesn’t start when you apply to the nursing program but when you are exposed to it, and we are key facilitators in that.” – Jae Kook Lim, NSNA BTN Director
