The Right Care Alliance (RCA) is a grassroots coalition of clinicians, patients, and community members organizing to make health care institutions accountable to communities and put patients, not profits, at the heart of health care.
Our vision is of a transformed system in which the pursuit of health is a right and health care is based on healing relationships, close to home, affordable, effective and just. We all deserve a system in which health professionals and patients alike experience the care they give and receive as necessary and meaningful.
Right Care is a human right. It places the health and wellbeing of patients first. Right Care is affordable and effective. It is compassionate, honest, and safe. Right Care brings healing and comfort to patients, and satisfaction to clinicians. Achieving Right Care will require radically transforming how care is delivered and financed.
The Right Care Alliance Steering Committee is the formal governing body of the RCA. The committee meets regularly and makes collective decisions around strategy, communications, training, and governance within the movement.
The Right Care Alliance is grateful for support from its funders, the RESIST Foundation and Ben and Jerry’s Foundation, which allow the Alliance to continue organizing for health care independently.
