Health Action Massachusetts is a registered 501(c)(4) non-profit organization that exists to protect and maintain medical, religious, parental and educational rights through grassroots advocacy, influential public policy, quality educational resources, and training to an engaged, connected community.
Education for All
At our core, we are focused on preserving individual rights, while advancing equity and equality in access to education for all without discrimination or coercion. Education is a fundamental right and is foundational for all students to have the same opportunities in their lives.
We are devoted to helping individuals become advocates for themselves and their families. We achieve this by keeping all Massachusetts residents informed of proposed legislation and providing them with the tools they need to advocate for and against bills that directly impact their lives.
For over a decade, Health Action MA and its families, have successfully lobbied for education rights within the State. Our efforts have included proposing several pieces of legislation that would protect religious freedom, individualized medical care, educational rights and parental autonomy.
