Monita Phillips said, “Networking is very important. We have to get out there and mingle. This was an opportunity to get to know who your fellow nurses are, and you never who you might meet or what connections you may make. You never know when you may need a job. It’s all about who you know.”

Countless women and men joined under one roof, for one common goal––to help people and join forces as African Americans within the field of nursing. Attendees left feeling more connected, motivated and determined to continue to strive within their careers.
“I failed my nursing boards the first time, but I didn’t quit. And I encourage everyone else to do the same thing. Don’t quit, and stay at it. Nursing is hard, but you can’t give up. Don’t get discouraged. It will be so worth it in the end,” Lane said.
This was the second Bold, Black and Beautiful Nurses event that has taken place and their is currently being  planned. Lane said she is excited  to grow and expand the organization.
