The Campaign for New York Health is seeking volunteer organizers to implement a critical piece of our movement building strategy: documenting healthcare stories and testimonials. 

Through one-on-one statewide Outreach Canvassing using the New York Health Access Survey, we are learning about the health care stories and struggles in our community and inviting our friends and neighbors to join the fight for health care for all. 

Sign up below to volunteer for Outreach Canvassing in your community. The Campaign for New York Health can connect you to other activists in your community and help you organize a local outreach team.
