Message from ANCOR:

ANCOR shares their new Medicaid Resource Center for targeted resources to aid in your education and advocacy efforts! Let’s work together to protect Medicaid funding from potential cuts!

The Medicaid Resource Center is a central location where you can find the most up-to-date information and resources. Included in the Medicaid Resource Center is a video Intro to I/DD Services, ANCOR’S most recent fact sheet Cuts to Medicaid Harm Disability Services, as well as highlighted reports and white papers on Medicaid trends and impacts of community-based services. In addition to the Advocacy Toolkit and the ANCOR Amplifier, please use these targeted resources available in the new Medicaid Resource Center to aid in your advocacy.

Last evening, the Brain Injury Association of America (BIAA) released the following Action Alert regarding a bill that proposes to eliminate brain injury (BI) programs at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Injury Center. View the Action Alert below:


House Budget Bill Proposes to Eliminate Brain Injury Programs at the CDC Injury Center

Dear Brain Injury Champions and Advocates,

On Wednesday, the House Subcommittee on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies proposed a budget bill for Fiscal Year 2025 that would eliminate all brain injury programs under the Centers for Disease Control’s Injury Center.

This would be an enormous step backwards. Without these brain injury programs, we’ll have even less accurate data and create a void in public education and outreach.

We need you to help us oppose this proposal and preserve brain injury programming!

ACTION ALERT:

We are asking ALL our advocates to email and call House Appropriations Labor and Health and Human Services Subcommittee members and ask them to save the Injury Center by 9:00 am on Wednesday, July 10.

You can learn more about what’s at stake and find a sample email and phone script by selecting the Take Action Now button below.
