According to the Campaign for America’s Health Centers, “An Advocacy Center of Excellence, or ACE, is any Health Center that has achieved certain measures of advocacy success and demonstrated ongoing commitment to advocacy by making it an organizational priority. ACEs are not only actively engaged and involved with NACHC and federal policy issues, but also with their state’s PCA and any key state-level policy issues impacting Health Centers and their patients. There are three levels of ACE status- Bronze, Silver, and Gold- and the designation is valid for two years. There is a checklist of items a Health Center must complete before becoming an ACE.”
