Community Health Center Grassroots Advocacy Day 2013

  
Advocacy Day 2013 a Huge Success!
Nearly 600 community health center advocates from across the state joined CHCANYS on March 4th to push Albany policymakers for continued focus on strengthening primary care and discuss issues that are critically important for community, homeless and migrant health care providers across the Empire State (click below to view this year’s NYS Budget Priorities). The annual Advocacy Day is organized by CHCANYS and draws patients, health care providers and leaders from federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) in every corner of the state.

A big thank you to all of the advocates who traveled to Albany on March 4th to meet with elected officials!
