Health Center Advocacy for Providers and Clinicians

The role health center clinicians and other providers play in driving effective and powerful advocacy at their health centers, both personally and as an organization, cannot be overstated. Active participation by health center staff who engage day-to-day with patients is a key element to building a successful advocacy program at all levels of health center operations and outreach. This session will share best practices on how health center clinicians and other providers can and should work with health center leadership to drive advocacy initiatives, and effectively leverage relationships with other community leaders and organizations to raise awareness and increase power and influence.
