Your guide to nursing advocacy in California.

A ROADMAP FOR ASPIRING NURSE ADVOCATES

Every nurse's advocacy journey begins at the same moment - a moment when you envision improvement: in patient care, professional advancement, or simply standing up for what's right. But effecting change isn't a one-shot deal—it's a strategic journey. While advocacy may seem daunting, it's immensely rewarding, opening doors and amplifying your voice.

Our guide is your roadmap, equipping you to navigate healthcare with confidence. As you navigate this series, you'll gain comprehensive insights into nursing policy and politics in California. This includes crafting your own nursing campaign, confidently engaging with decision-makers and the media, and hearing success stories from seasoned nurse advocates in the state.

The Advocacy Institute Guide serves as your foundational resource, providing essential support as you navigate the Advocacy Institute. Complementing this guide is our Advocacy Institute Fellowship, a year-long program designed for experienced nurse advocates. Learn more.
