Government Relations
The Office of Government Relations is responsible for monitoring public policy, legislative and regulatory initiatives, as well as serving as a liaison for all levels of government - local state and federal. In addition, this office works to ensure that we maintain an open dialogue with policy makers in a manner that is beneficial to the overall goals of the organization. The main purpose is to promote the ability of the Public Health Trust to effectively serve the health care needs of the community through representation, advocacy and service. The Office of Government Relations falls under the jurisdiction of the Executive Office.

Become a Jackson Advocate
Every year, our local, state and federal government discusses and debates issues of critical importance to this institution. The Office of Government Relations works to ensure that our policymakers are familiar with the vision and mission of this institution. However, that requires involvement from this organization’s most valuable resource --- you, the employees! In order to increase awareness we are asking our employees to join us in a cooperative effort of education and advocacy. There are many things that we can do together for the betterment of this organization. Whether it’s sending an e-mail to the Governor on issues like Medicaid reform or volunteering to attend community events, the synergy we can obtain by working together will help Jackson succeed exponentially. There are many ways to get involved and we look forward to working with you over the next several months. Feel free to browse through this webpage and check out any of the links provided here. They will be updated constantly and action alerts will be sent out for those interested in getting involved. In fact, you can even find out who your state or federal representative is by simply typing in your zip code on these attached links. Legislators love to hear from their constituents. Please feel free to contact the Government Relations Office with any questions, ideas or comments.
