Advocacy at CHHSM

CHHSM members are called to be faithful advocates for those in need, including those whom we serve through our ministries. We maintain an active relationship with UCC public policy advocates, and we strive to inform CHHSM member ministries about relevant public policy issues and provide them with information and resources to foster their advocacy.

Do you have questions about CHHSM's advocacy services? Please call or email Vice-President for Member Services Bill Johnson, 216-736-2256, email.
