This completely updated third edition challenges nurses to fulfill their critical role and responsibility to society in advancing health policy by providing them with the tools to achieve their goals. This edition addresses the impact of critical issues including COVID-19, diversity, social determinants of health, and social justice. Challenges faced by nurses in care delivery including the safety, health, and well-being of nurses (e.g., suicide) are explored. Recently issued seminal documents, including the Future of Nursing 2020-2030 report, the American Association of Colleges of Nurses’ “Essentials,” and the World Health Organization’s report on the Health Workforce are highlighted.

Robust discussion of strategies with the use of evidence and real-world examples and stories provide nurses with the foundation to be policy influencers.

Leadership, ethical, and social justice principles are integrated across chapters, which exemplify policy development from the global scale to the local level.
