About Rest. Resist. Run. Rise.

The Rest. Resist. Run. Rise. campaign is a collaborative initiative between A Sista’s Touch (AST) and DNPs of Color (DOC), designed to raise awareness, increase community engagement, and secure donations in support of AST’s programming focused on protecting, empowering, and celebrating Black women and girls.

Serving as the culminating activity for the DOC 5th Annual Conference, the Virtual 5K will be hosted on Sunday, October 19, and is open to the entire community. The campaign unites the themes of rest, resistance, physical movement, and social uplift—centering holistic wellness and systemic change.

The DNPs of Color 5th Annual Conference will be hosted on October 16th-19th in Oakland, California, the first time on the West Coast. This event is your opportunity to connect, learn, and lead in a community dedicated to advancing diversity in nursing.
