Description
Summary:•Health policy is consistently focused on addressing the goals of the Triple Aim (quality, access, and cost) as well as the Quadruple Aim (which adds clinician burnout). In recent years, there has been much discussion regarding the incorporation of the UN's Sustainable Development Goals when constructing policy.•In order to accomplish these goals and navigate the political landscape, nursing groups collaboratively advocate on the issue that most binds them: the nursing workforce.•The Nursing Community Coalition's work showcases what can be accomplished through collective advocacy to fulfill the Triple Aim, Quadruple Aim, and Sustainable Development Goals. Nurses are positioned to advance the Social Development Goals (SDGs) of the United Nations, especially Goal Three: Good Health and Well-Being. However, to do this there must be micro- and macro-level support from the profession. When the individual will of nurses is coupled with collaborative efforts of professional nursing organizations, such as the Nursing Community Coalition, policies supporting the SDGs are able to move forward.
