2020 public policy priorities

Nurse-Family Partnership is not just a community health program, we advocate on behalf of NFP families as well as the nurses, local agencies and communities that rally to their cause. Nurse-Family Partnership catalyzes support at the federal, state and local levels for funding and policies that sustain and enhance this important work. We are proud to advocate for public policies at all levels of government that support healthy moms and babies.

You can help shape NFP's advocacy!

As we work to educate elected officials and the general public about the amazing work being accomplished on the ground, we want to learn more about our greatest asset in this process - YOU. We will soon be conducting an online survey of our advocates to properly gauge our strengths and enable us to effectively plan for future public policy discussions. Some questions in this survey will ask if you know certain elected officials while other questions ask about your views and ideas related to the public policy and budget processes.

As a valued member of our community, your participation in this survey and the honest feedback you provide will be important to this work.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the Policy & Government Affairs team at [email protected]. Thank you in advance for your participation and support!
