August, Month of Action

As we head into Congress’ summer recess, we encourage you to take local action now. You can find updates on the SAVIR Advocacy Hub (requires logging in to your account). Things you can do this month include calling your lawmaker or making a visit to their home office to share how your work impacts their district. SAVIR is working with other societies to share information as we receive it and elevate all of the advocacy work for IVP funding and the agencies doing that work. In July, Executive Director Christen Rexing participated in meetings with the American Academy of Pediatrics and the Keep American Safe Coalition. SAVIR Council of Centers has actively engaged with government relations colleagues at our centers and across organizations. We are working hard to stay connected and highlight your critical work to save lives.
