Background: Systemic racism and inequity are embedded in higher education, especially in nursing. By disregarding health disparities and inequities, a hidden curriculum is endorsed, implicitly letting both instructors and students know that not addressing these subjects is acceptable.
Method: Needs assessments were performed to assess faculty and student attitudes about the needs for justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI) concepts. Using the Plan-Do-Study-Act model, the School of Nursing leadership, faculty, and students created taskforces to implement anti-oppression curricula throughout prelicensure courses.
Results: Anti-oppression curricula and workshops were piloted successfully in the first semester of prelicensure nursing. Student feedback was positive with constructive suggestions. JEDI curriculum mapping was completed across the prelicensure nursing curriculum.
Conclusion: JEDI concepts must be integrated across nursing curricula to identify gaps. Forming a collaboration between leadership, faculty, and students is an optimal way to proceed as they all are invested and accountable for change. [J Nurs Educ. 2022;61(8):447-454.].
