The National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC) has designated today as a National Day of Action. The theme of Stand Up, Stand Together: Save Community Health Centers encourages advocates from across the country to step up and share the great work of community health centers like AltaMed.
 
We ask you to join this effort and email members of Congress about what we have been able to do with their investments, and make a case for long-term funding for AltaMed and other community health centers. Your support is critical, especially during these times.
