Short Abstract: 

We have another tough year ahead for Urban Indian Health. NCUIH is again anticipating the Urban Indian Health line item in the IHS budget to be zeroed out. We are ready to employ the political capital we have gained from last years congressional renouncement of the proposed budget, and have been busy planning for and producing materials that will be key in our advocacy efforts this year. We are better situated then in years past and we will again achieve success. Following are highlights of our advocacy plan. This will be an evolving and changing plan as conditions require. NCUIH is in a position to anticipate needs and assist Congress to move through the budget process this year.
