Current Advocacy Initiatives
Protect Medicaid for People with Disabilities!
Medicaid (called “Medi-Cal” in California) is a federal public health insurance program that is critical for the livelihood of children and adults with disabilities, older adults, and low-income families.
Medicaid covers vital health services and supports, such as doctor appointments, medicine, medical equipment, In-Home Support Services (IHSS), Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS), independent living services, and regional center services. It also funds critical special education services and children’s hospitals
Right now, Congress is considering $880 billion in funding cuts to Medicaid. These cuts would be devastating for millions of our most vulnerable Americans.
CONTACT your representatives TODAY, urging them to reject cuts to Medicaid and protect this crucial program! LEARN MORE & TAKE ACTION!
PRxDigital invites you to a press conference and community rally to oppose the impending Medicaid cuts that would devastate the lives of children, seniors, individuals with disabilities, and low-income families. This is not a political event, but a human one. Join PRxDigital and countless community members as we share personal stories and display the faces of those who rely on Medicaid’s essential services. Your presence and voice are critical in protecting healthcare for our most vulnerable.
