In 2002, the Institute launched a research seed grant program to aid the effort of AONE members pursuing research projects in the area of nursing leadership and administration. Applications are available in the fall on the AONE website and announced in E-News Update and Voice of Nursing Leadership™. Research projects should support AONE's Strategic Plan and research priorities, and awardees are asked to report on the progress of their research to the AONE Institute and the membership at large.

“Nursing engagement is a fundamental, critical element of patient safety, quality care, and the advancement of our discipline. The AONE Institute has provided us with an opportunity to harness the voice of nursing through the exploration of best practice in shared governance. We have been given a gift that allows for the convergence of innovation, creativity, and science; all for the singular purpose of patient care.”
