Our advocacy seeks to increase health equity and access to reproductive and other safety net services through stakeholder engagement, mobilization, and advancing a shared policy agenda.
MFHC’s 2024 policy priorities are:
- Ensure Medicaid operates effectively and is structured to provide the best care possible;
- Expand access to contraception and contraceptive equity;
- Advance racial and LGBTQIA equity in access to healthcare;
- Promote and improve the state Women’s Health Services Program (WHSP);
- Defend against attacks to the health safety net;
- Assure accurate and comprehensive sexual and reproductive health information and referrals, including to legal abortion outside Missouri;
- Repair and improve the federal Title X program; and
- Increase access to STI testing and treatment.
MFHC also supports partner organizations in achieving interconnected policy goals.
