Families USA

Families USA, a national, non-partisan voice for healthcare consumers, is dedicated to achieving high-quality, affordable health care and improved health for all. Its work is driven by and centered around four pillars: value, equity, coverage and consumer experience. It views these focus areas — and the various issues unique to each area — as the cornerstones of America’s healthcare system.

Public policy analysis that is rooted in congressional and administration experience, movement-building advocacy and collaboration with partners are deep-rooted hallmarks of its work. In turn, its work promotes a health system that protects consumers’ financial security as much as it does their healthcare security.

As Families USA advances its mission by combining policy expertise and partnerships with community, state and national leaders, it forges transformational solutions that improve the health and health care of our nation’s families and speak to the values we all have in common.

Families USA's ability to engage a broad network of stakeholders representing consumers, the healthcare sector and the business sector is the mark of its success, as is its history of working with leaders from both sides of the political aisle to tackle the healthcare problems facing the nation. Congress, federal agencies and congressional staff rely on its sophisticated, expert advice to understand current policy and to develop new ideas.

Families USA has deep, longstanding relationships with a diverse cadre of consumer leaders, advocates and partner organizations in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Families USA works with a core of consumer leaders and grassroots activists in all 50 states. These relationships cut across “red states”, “blue states” and “purple states” as well as rural and urban communities. Families USA also has a rich history in building coalitions and executing campaigns with a range of national partners.

Families USA does not stand alone in its work. It stands shoulder to shoulder with the families whose voices it takes great privilege in lifting. In that way, millions are part of its mission, too.
