Thursday is World Kindness Day.

From fact-checking and supporting vulnerable communities to spreading messages of tolerance, there are many ways we can counter hate speech through the power of kindness.

Together, we can say no to hate and create safe, inclusive spaces that uphold human rights, diversity and respect for all.

Kindness is our shared responsibility.

Doctors can’t afford to keep their doors open—and patients lose access.

We’re punishing those who serve our most vulnerable.

New Mexico has fewer than 1,650 primary care physicians serving over 2 million people—and the gap is growing.

Low reimbursement rates, excessive liability costs, and policy inaction are driving doctors out of practice.

When the system fails providers, it fails patients first.

Katie Cunningham lays out her experience with the health care provider shortage happening in New Mexico in a Nov. 2 Op-Ed in The Albuquerque Journal. Like Katie, there are so many other New Mexican patients and families that are ready to see meaningful medical malpractice reform, so that they can access timely and quality health care.
