2024 PEACH State Action Program

The 2024 PEACH State Action Program in Sacramento will take place at a critical time for California’s community safety net hospitals. As the state deficit looms, so many new faces in leadership positions, and major health care issues of importance to the hospital safety net are unsettled, it’s important for the voices of safety net hospitals to be heard in our state's capital.

Your presence at that time will have the potential to influence those new leaders and major healthcare policy decisions: it will be vital for you to tell your hospitals’ stories and to illustrate how the current financial environment for community safety net hospitals directly affects access to healthcare for individuals and families in your communities.

With the distribution of MCO funding up for debate, implementation of the minimum wage unclear and the definition of safety net hospitals being discussed, your legislators need to hear from you how important it is for them to act to protect the communities they represent.
