Mission Statement:
Nurse Alliance of SEIU California advocates for improving healthcare and the nursing professions through education, empowerment, political and other collective actions.
Core Values:
Equity: As nurses, we advocate for policies that address the inequities that exist in the healthcare industry as well as the social determinants of health, especially those which impact Californians who are low-income, people of color, immigrants, and members of the LGBTQ+ community.
Knowledge: We provide unique and relevant educational opportunities for nurses.
Support: Nurse Alliance of SEIU California is a place where nurse can learn from each other and lift each other up, no matter where in California they are practicing.
Advocacy: We drive excellence in nursing through empowering nurses to speak out and lead on healthcare, nursing, environmental and social justice.
Nurse Alliance is of, by, and for nurses. This philosophy means that nurses are in charge, make decisions, and work together to engage other nurses in their work to improve the quality of patient care.
More than 35,000 Registered Nurses from both public and private sector health systems are part of the Nurse Alliance of SEIU California. By uniting nurses from all over California, we can speak with a collective voice to enhance patient care, save our public health systems, improve working conditions, work to ensure quality affordable and accessible healthcare, communicate more effectively with each other, and build a better future for nurses and their families.
Registered Nurses are driven by a desire to care for others and we can do that most effectively when we work together. The leadership of the Nurse Alliance of SEIU California makes a difference not just in the lives of our patients, but also in the standards of our profession and the quality of healthcare throughout California.
