California's health care consumer advocacy coalition, fighting for more quality, equitable, and affordable health care for ALL Californians.
CA’s health care delivery system is stronger & more stable when everyone is covered & healthy - regardless of their immigration status. Without access to preventative care, overburdened ERs get busier with cases that could have been treated in a doctor’s office. #Health4ALL
El sistema de salud de CA es más fuerte y estable cuando todas y todos tienen cobertura - sin importar su estatus migratorio. Sin cuidado preventivo, las salas de emergencia se llenan con casos que podrían haberse atendido en un consultorio médico. #Health4All #SaludParaTodxs
More than 1 in 6 CA kids has an undocumented parent. #Health4All uplifts CA’s diverse families, including those with mixed statuses. When we keep parents and caregivers healthy, we strengthen and support entire families and communities. We need Medi-Cal for ALL Californians.
En California, más de 1 de cada 6 niños y niñas tiene un papá o mamá sin estatus migratorio. #Health4All apoya a familias diversas, incluidas las de estatus migratorio mixto. Cuando cuidamos a quienes cuidan, fortalecemos a familias y comunidades. Medi-Cal para todes.
While Republican leaders in Congress threaten to make massive cuts and rip health care away from millions, California must stand united and protect #Health4All
Mientras líderes Republicanos en el Congreso amenazan con hacer recortes enormes y quitar el cuidado de salud a millones, California debe mantenerse unida y proteger #Health4All
Cuts to Medi-Cal don’t hurt just one person, they have a ripple effect across the state. Don’t take health care away from our communities. Support #Health4All
Los recortes a Medi-Cal no afectan solo a una persona - tienen un efecto dominó en todo el estado. No le quiten el cuidado de salud a nuestras comunidades. Apoyen #Health4All
California’s health care delivery system is stronger and more stable when everyone is covered and healthy - regardless of their immigration status. Without access to preventative care, already overburdened emergency rooms get busier with cases that could have been treated in a doctor’s office.
El sistema de salud de California es más fuerte y estable cuando todas y todos tenemos cobertura médica y buena salud - sin importar nuestro estatus migratorio. Sin acceso a cuidado preventivo, las salas de emergencia, que ya están saturadas, se llenan aún más con casos que podrían haberse atendido en un consultorio médico

Under current Congressional Republican proposals, major cuts could be looming for #Medicaid (Medi-Cal in CA) & #ACA exchanges like @CoveredCA. Millions of Californians could see their health care costs skyrocket or lose care all together. @healthaccessca reports impact by each CA congressional district via the link in their bio.
Medicaid, or Medi-Cal in California, is a lifeline for over 15 million Californians, providing essential care to families, seniors, and children. Congress needs to hear from you now: Hands off Medicaid! Send a letter to your member of Congress today and demand they protect the care millions depend on. Easy tool linked in @healthaccessca bio.

Statewide coalition of non-profit providers, community centers & researchers collectively advocating to advance LGBTQ health in CA. A project of Health Access California
This week, Executive Orders from the Trump Administration have raised serious concerns for the LGBTQ+ community, particularly when it comes to our overall health and wellness.
Swipe to learn more about these EOs and find resources to support yourself and community. Together, we must stay informed, uplift one another, and continue the fight for LGBTQ+ health equity.
Complaints asserting any violations related to enforcement of the Executive Orders can be filed with the California Attorney General’s Office or the CA Civil Rights Department (links in bio)!
#LGBTQHealth
LGBTQ+ and health advocates strongly condemn Trump’s dangerous Executive Order restricting gender-affirming care for trans youth. If enacted, this extreme policy could harm tens of thousands of trans young people in California alone.
Trans youth deserve care, dignity, and the right to thrive. We won’t stand by as their health and futures are attacked.

Your health is an act of self-love. The CA LGBTQ Health and Human Services Network is gathering LGBTQ+ community insights on affirming language in medical settings—especially how sexual orientation and gender identity data are collected and used in cancer care. Your voice helps shape better care and training for providers across California!
When SOGI data isn’t collected, LGBTQ+ health needs go unrecognized. Let’s change that—because you deserve care that sees and affirms you.
Loving Yourself Means Loving Your Health - take the survey today and help improve care for our communities. https://calgbtqhealth.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_86RU91l2nxGZX4W #LGBTQHealth #SOGIData #HealthEquity
Tu salud es un acto de amor propio. La Red de Salud y Servicios Humanos LGBTQ de CA está recopilando información de la comunidad LGBTQ+ sobre el lenguaje afirmativo en atención médica, especialmente sobre cómo se recopilan y utilizan los datos de orientación sexual e identidad de género en la atención oncológica. ¡Tu voz contribuye a mejorar la atención y la capacitación de los profesionales de la salud en toda California!
Cuando no se recopilan datos sobre SOGI, las necesidades de salud LGBTQ+ pasan desapercibidas. Cambiemos eso, porque mereces una atención que te vea y te afirme.
Quererte a ti mismo significa amar tu salud: completa la encuesta hoy mismo y ayuda a mejorar la atención en nuestras comunidades.

This #TransDayofVisibility, Make Your Voice Heard!
Trans and nonbinary people are often invisible in medical data, making it harder to advocate for the care they deserve.

When our identities aren’t counted, our needs go unmet. You can change that!
