Policy and Advocacy

The San Joaquin Valley Health Fund Policy Committee is a volunteer group of leaders from grantee partner organizations who share a unified voice to advocate for health and racial equity and social justice through legislation, policy and systems change. The Committee’s Policy Platform elevates the needs of the San Joaquin Valley and is shared at the annual Equity on the Mall rally and at meetings with legislators.

Resources

We’re pleased to share publications including research reports and guides, as well as the San Joaquin Valley Health Fund PhotoVoice Project with reflections from community members who partner with San Joaquin Valley organizations working to advance health and racial equity in the region.
