We are excited to relaunch our monthly newsletter to offer updates on the Civic Health Alliance (CHA) as well as share resources that can advance our individual and collective efforts to deepen civic engagement within care settings and communities across the country.

Civic Health Compact Update

With generous funding from the RxFoundation, CHA has convened a group of experts at the intersection of health care and civic engagement to co-develop a Civic Health Compact - a parsimonious set of promising practices that health care delivery organizations can implement to more fully show up in our communities. Over the course of three virtual roundtables we have created a theory of change, surfaced promising examples and resources, and explored metrics by which progress can be assessed. We will aim to begin testing the Compact with health care delivery organizations in the coming months.

RxVote Resources

At CHA, we believe civic engagement can be some of the BEST medicine. That's one of many reasons we were thrilled to launch the #RxVote campaign earlier this year. Below are a couple resources you can use to encourage voter registration in your care settings and communities:

RxVote “Prescriptions” : Consider placing these in your units/clinics or handing out to patients in the waiting room. You may download the image here, or email bozwell@civichealthalliance.org to be mailed printed prescription pads at no cost to you.
CHA Website : Visit our website for additional resources.
