Abstract
ABSTRACT: Social justice is a core value of nursing and is deeply rooted within forensic nursing. Forensic nurses are uniquely positioned to examine and address social determinants of health that contribute to victimization, lack of access to forensic nursing services, and inability to utilize resources and services aimed at restoring health after an injury or illness related to trauma or violence. To achieve this, forensic nursing capacity and expertise must be strengthened through robust education. A graduate, forensic nursing, program sought to address this educational need by integrating content related to social justice, health equity, health disparity, and social determinants of health throughout its specialty curriculum.
