In 2017, the Nurses on Boards Coalition (NOBC) was founded with the mission "to improve health in communities across the nation through the service of nurses on all types of boards."
Laurie Benson, BSN, Executive Director of NOBC says that "The vision of NOBC was created in direct response to The Institute of Medicine’s 2011 landmark report, ‘The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health,’ which called for nurses to play a more pivotal decision-making role on boards and commissions."
