At the state level, NCAFP is focused on two key advocacy goals:

1. Increasing state investment in Family Medicine to improve the pay, conditions, and future workforce of family physicians

Comments from NCAFP Members:

 

"The NCAFP helped it seem more possible and way less daunting to get involved in advocating for policies that impact my work."

“I’m not really a policy person, but I can see that it’s important to my practice that we’re here to talk with policymakers.”

“It’s nice to see people getting involved for their communities.”

"As family physicians who build trust with our patients, we’re well positioned to form relationships with our lawmakers.”
