Be Ready to Head to the Hill: 2018 Health Center Policy Agenda, Advocacy Strategy, and How to Move Congress to ACT!

Date
March 14, 2018

As thousands of health center advocates take to Capitol Hill, Congress is weighing questions related to funding, payment, and our role within the health care system. This session will provide a clear rundown of the 2018 Health Center Policy Agenda and advocacy strategy. It will be the main opportunity for advocates to hear this year's "asks" and to dialogue with NACHC Policy and Advocacy staff about how best to carry our collective message forward. We will showcase tips and information on how to effectively communicate our agenda to members of Congress and their staff. Don't go to the Hill unprepared - this is your best opportunity to prepare for your 2018 Hill visits and hone your skills to be a more effective advocate.
