About Us

Abortion Care Training Incubator for Outstanding Nurse Scholars (ACTIONS) is an innovative program that seeks to connect, mentor, and support pre-and post-doctoral scholars looking to pursue a PhD at the School of Nursing (SON) at University of California San Francisco (UCSF). Over the next three years (2019-2022), the program will provide funding for pre- and post-doctoral scholars to design studies that prioritize reproductive justice as the primary approach to reproductive health services provision, including abortion, birth, contraception, healthy sexuality, parenting and pleasure. As our inaugural cohort, we are looking for scholars who are enthusiastic and passionate about transformational change toward Reproductive Justice. This program provides a unique opportunity to train the next generation of thought leaders and change agents in nursing leadership and faculty positions around the country.
