We invite you to join us in making a difference and supporting CHN’s vital work by becoming a sponsor or donor. Your contribution will guarantee the continued success to advance our shared mission to create a more just and equitable society for all. Also, we want to be able to celebrate the notable efforts of social justice work when many people are unsure of what to do and who to turn to.

As a token of thanks, all sponsors receive tickets to our Hero Award celebration and recognition (additional tickets are available for purchase).

The alliance of our national organizations working together over the last four decades has contributed to major policy improvements and promoted more inclusivity to groups routinely excluded. We appreciate your support for the coalition’s concerted efforts and hope you continue to be part of the vital work to maintain community support systems during confusing restructuring.

Thank you!
