National Fly-Ins Overview

National fly-ins are a highly effective way to elevate the voice of Community Health Center (CHC) advocates with lawmakers in Washington, D.C. Each year, CHC and state/regional Primary Care Association (PCA) leaders conduct hundreds of bipartisan meetings with members of Congress and staff, directly shaping policy conversations and sustainable funding opportunities.

NACHC works in close partnership with PCAs to coordinate fly-ins and other opportunities to engage with elected officials. If you are interested in traveling to Washington, D.C. to speak with your members of Congress, please be sure to contact your state/regional PCA to coordinate these visits.  

Upcoming NACHC Fly-Ins

We invite you to join us in Washington, D.C. on September 15-16 and December 8-9, 2026 to meet with lawmakers. Your voice is critical as we advocate for funding and policies that ensure sustainability for Community Health Centers nationwide! 

Who Should Attend

  • Community Health Centers (staff, board members, patients) 
  • Regional/State Primary Care Associations (PCAs) 
  • Health Center Controlled Networks (HCCNs)
