2016 Advocacy
Intensive a Success
Hospice Advocates Converge
on Capitol Hill
Our commitment on Capitol Hill
continued this summer with the
annual Advocacy Intensive,
hosted July 18 - 19, 2016, by
NHPCO and the Hospice Action
Network. Nearly 250 hospice
advocates from 120-plus hospices
attended, representing 46 states
and Puerto Rico. More than
two-thirds of attendees were
first-time participants from key
Congressional districts who
brought fresh voices to our
hospice message.
All the members of the
interdisciplinary team were
represented and they were able to
share stories from the bedside that
resonated strongly with members
of Congress and their staff.
These dedicated advocates
converged on Capitol Hill to call on
Congress to support the
Personalize Your Care Act of 2016,
the Rural Access to Hospice Act,
and the Care Planning Act.

This year's Advocacy Intensive
theme was "Advocacy in Your
Backyard." During the two-day
event, attendees learned best
practices for advocating for hospice
and how to connect directly with
their members of Congress not
only on Capitol Hill but back in
their home communities.
"Since the inaugural HAN
Advocacy Intensive in 2012, more
than 1,000 hospice advocates have
shared their caregiving stories on
Capitol Hill," said NHPCO President
and CEO J. Donald Schumacher.
"Our advocates make quite an
impact on Members of Congress
and leave Washington with tools
and resources to advocate for
hospice in their own community."
NHPCO and HAN extend deep
appreciation to the Advocacy
Intensive sponsors, Hospice
Pharmacy Solutions and Kinnser
Software, as well as to all our
participants who worked very
hard to represent the best of
hospice in more than 300
Congressional meetings.
