Alliance Goes to Albany to Save Health Homes

On Tuesday February 27, almost 20 Alliance staff and program participants took a pre-dawn bus to Albany to meet with legislators and emphasize how important Health Homes. The program is a care management mechanism for 2,000+ of our participants, and 170,000 people with chronic conditions throughout New York State with chronic conditions. State funding for Health Homes has been cut over the past two years, with an additional $125M cut in 2025 proposed by Governor Hochul.

“Without the Health Homes program, I would not be here,” said Adonis Porch, an Alliance Peer and former program participant who has advocated in Albany on more than five separate occasions.
