Now is the time to marshal the political will and resources needed to bring the RAISE National Strategy to life. The Strategy will be updated biennially, informed in part by public feedback. It is critical that all key stakeholders with a focus on issues such as aging, disability, public health, patient advocacy, financial/economic security, equity, healthcare reform, mental health, community-based supports, social services, long-term care, chronic/serious illness, and beyond have a voice in this process. </span></p>
