Congratulations Ashiqua Jackson, NBNPA 2022 scholarship recipient!
 
Ashiqua Jackson is one of our many outstanding graduate students of the National Black Nurse Practitioner Association and is currently enrolled in the Doctor of Nursing Practice Program at Arkansas State University. Ms. Jackson has been a nurse for over 21 years and currently is a Family Nurse Practitioner. Ashiqua states "Becoming a nurse over 21 years ago was not just a job for me, but a calling that I continue to enjoy regularly".
 
She initially practiced in and had a heart for the geriatric population. Through her desire to bridge the gap between communities and clinical studies, Ashiqua developed a clinical site within the community of Memphis Tennessee that specializes in conducting clinical trials and providing education to individuals who are underrepresented in the research industry.
