Consumer Voices for Coverage

Building on more than 40 years of commitment to expanding health insurance coverage, in 2008 the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation launched Consumer Voices for Coverage (CVC), a joint initiative with Community Catalyst. CVC allows state-based consumer advocacy networks to bring the views of average people into discussions around coverage issues.

Now in its third funding cycle, the project provides grants to state-based advocates to strengthen the consumer voice in health care reform implementation.
