NACHC has initiated the Community Health Vote Campaign to encourage and assist Health Centers in developing and implementing local programs to educate their patients and their families about public policy issues affecting their access to health care and to increase significantly voter registration and participation in the nearly 6000 communities in which Health Centers are located. The goal of the Campaign is to enhance Health Centers’ ability to initiate positive changes within communities where they are located through civic engagement and advocacy.

On this page you will find resources and links to information and campaign partners which will assist you in initiating and carrying out voter registration and other civic engagement activities at your center. If you have any questions, please contact Marc Wetherhorn.
