Abstract

Nursing honors programs have been shown to promote leadership development, socialization to the profession, and early advanced education enrollment for students. However, nursing honors programs face many implementation hurdles. INCHES is a new network to encourage discussion, share strategies, and offer mutual support for nursing honors program development and implementation.
