Advocacy Handbook
One of our primary missions is to be an effective advocate on issues of importance to our home care membership and their clients. Association efforts alone are not enough. Legislators and other policymakers need to hear from people like you—home care agency staff, board members, clients and families—to help focus attention on important home care issues. Our Advocacy Handbook shows you how to advocate effectively. Contact us for more information.
