We believe that everyday Americans deserve the same advocacy tools to advance their health as other stakeholders in our democracy. Corporations, industry associations, and partisan ideological groups shouldn’t be the only ones with lobbyists and the power to influence elections.

Healthier United puts these critical resources into action on behalf of those who have the most at stake in the development of health policy – Americans themselves.

 
 

We Change Laws and Systems Through Campaigns

  • We perform policy research, build coalitions, and use media to advance campaigns built on listening to the needs and views of everyday Americans.

We Listen, Learn, and Prompt Action Through Canvassing

  • Via the formidable field capacity of our sister organization, Open Answer, we have face-to-face conversations with people in communities across the country to both listen and prompt action.

  • We perform quantitative polling and other qualitative research to understand the experiences and views of Americans.

We Lead With a Non-Partisan Commitment to Public Health

  • We work with and provide financial support to both Democrat and Republican candidates and elected officials who prove they are willing to advance public health in line with our mission.

  • We are open to partnership and ideas regardless of where they come from on the political spectrum.

  • We value science and common sense, and we are uncompromising in our pursuit of health equity.

 
 
 

We combine the power of two entities to build a better present and future for the health and well-being of Americans.
