Our Organization

Black Nurses Rock, Inc. (BNR) was founded in 2014 by Dr. Romeatrius Moss. BNR’s launch was heard throughout the nation, igniting a movement in Black Nurses Nationwide. Black Nurses Rock Inc. is an organization with a focus to foster a positive environment of professional growth and development. We provide support and mentorship to nurses in an effort to elevate our profession and improve our communities.

It is a powerful forum for Black nurses to share their stories, insights, and opinions. As the trusted voice for black nurses, we not only facilitate communication, but also act as a catalyst of change, bringing light and life to vital issues pertinent to the black nurse and community.
