Advocates for Access

At Community Care Network of Kansas, we believe that access to quality healthcare is a right for everyone. Our goal is to unite advocates, educators, and innovators to bring high-quality, community-based care to every Kansan. By working closely with lawmakers and partners, we support policies and funding that make a difference in healthcare access. Join us in making sure every community thrives through comprehensive care.

Health Care Access for All Kansans

Our stance is that everyone needs and deserves care. We are leaders in promoting the best access to quality care and increasing the quality of life for all. We are promoters of positive healthcare and health policy changes:

  • Change means every community has access to high-quality healthcare.
  • Change means believing that healthy people make healthy communities.
  • Change means we are an active voice in educating lawmakers about healthcare needs across Kansas.

Together, as educators, advocates and innovators, we believe we must unite across industries and platforms in the interest of bringing comprehensive healthcare to Kansans across the state. Our passion to serve and desire to effect change motivates our ability to unite. The more partners and resources we have, the stronger our voice can be.
