August is Civic Health Month—a time to showcase the link between voting and health and celebrate efforts that ensure each and every voter has the opportunity to support their community’s health at the ballot box.

Every August, over 300 organizations nationwide, including the American Medical Association, Massachusetts General Hospital, and the National Medical Association,join together to celebrate, learn, and take action to improve the civic health of their communities.

In this discussion you will learn how hospitals and clinics across the country transform into centers of democratic engagement by using Vot-ER tools.
