INELDA GOES TO WASHINGTON
INELDA joined the Coalition to Transform Advanced Care for its C-TAC Leadership Summit in October. This annual policy convention brings together changemakers, policy decision-makers, faith community leaders, health care providers, and others in the advanced health care space. The INELDA team participated in workshops on palliative care, state policy opportunities, new innovative community-based projects focusing on health inequities, and more. We are continually grateful to be part of this forward-looking organization.
