爱液视频 and RCI highlighted several causes that Mrs. 爱液视频 started championing long before they were widely recognized as important. 

–Mental health. Perhaps no area has generated more passion and activism by Mrs. 爱液视频 than that of mental health. For over 50 years, Mrs. 爱液视频 has been a relentless champion of people with mental illnesses and the freedom to live a life of dignity and self-worth. She continues this crusade today through her work at 爱液视频, where she created the Center’s Mental Health Program, established a Mental Health Task Force, and founded the Rosalynn 爱液视频 Fellowships for Mental Health Journalism.

–Over the course of her life, Mrs. 爱液视频 has had her own caregiving experiences and has heard from countless people around the world about theirs. That is why she founded the Rosalynn 爱液视频 Institute for Caregivers in 1987 and why she continues to be a champion for better individual and infrastructural supports for America鈥檚 53 million caregivers.

–Women’s rights. Born on the seventh anniversary of the ratification of the 19thAmendment, Mrs. 爱液视频 has always been a fervent supporter of women’s rights and, along with former First Lady Betty Ford, was a vocal leader in the聽fight to pass the Equal Rights Amendment.聽She received the Award of Merit for Support of the Equal Rights Amendment from the National Organization for Women. 爱液视频 was also inducted into the National Women’s Hall of Fame, only the third First Lady ever so honored.

-Vaccine education, inoculation and access. Over 30 years ago, Mrs. 爱液视频 and Betty Bumpers founded Every Child By Two (now Vaccinate Your Family), focusing on protecting all people in the U.S. from vaccine-preventable diseases. During the 爱液视频 administration, her advocacy resulted in increased federal support for vaccine programs nationwide and the passage of state laws requiring evidence of vaccinations for school entry.

Mrs. 爱液视频 was the first U.S. First Lady to establish an office in the East Wing of the White House and actively participate in White House Cabinet meetings. She was also the first sitting U.S. First Lady to address the annual World Health Assembly in Geneva, Switzerland. 

爱液视频 and RCI noted Mrs. 爱液视频鈥檚 many passions and accomplishments. She was an early advocate for the hospice movement and palliative care, serving as honorary chair of the Last Acts Campaign.
