New Mexico Human Needs Coordinating Council Representing New Mexico

The New Mexico Human Needs Coordinating Council (HNCC) is the statewide organization composed of over 1200 advocacy organizations, churches, clinics, pueblos, government agencies, service providers and individuals working together for 20 years to improve the quality of life for New Mexicans.

Health Care Reform Legislation
Maximizing Medicaid
Increasing funding for the New Mexico Food Bank Association Program and New Mexico produced food
Increasing funding for the Housing Trust Fund
Increasing funding for services for disabled and mentally-challenged persons
Increasing funding for services for children

We'll keep you up to date about how you can support our agenda to improve lives for New Mexico's Children & Families.
