National Nurses United (NNU)
Focus Areas
Location
The largest union of registered nurses in the U.S., known for its progressive stances – from advocating Medicare for All to racial and climate justice – seeing these as inseparable from patient care.
Alongside its 175,000 members, community volunteers (especially other healthcare workers or students) join NNU’s campaigns by rallying with nurses for safe staffing laws, canvassing for Medicare for All, and providing mutual aid during crises (NNU’s RNRN program deploys volunteer nurses to disaster areas).
