A collection of New Hampshire non-profits will host a panel discussion and training titled "Quality Affordable Health Care for All in 2009: What It Is and Steps to Achieve It" on June 9th in Claremont and on June 10th in Keene.
The workshops are sponsored by Working Families Win and NH Citizens Alliance and combine an educational panel discussion with an advocacy and skills training session. The panelists will focus on the major public policy debates on national healthcare reform; discuss the public health insurance option and Medicare; and talk about the plan to include everyone in healthcare reform, including low income people, immigrants, and people of color. There will also be time for Q&A following the panel discussion. Following the panel discussion, participants will have the option of attending either a health equities training or an advocacy skills training session.

The discussion around national health care reform is moving at a rapid pace. Grassroots advocacy is one of the most effective tools for stopping special interest groups and insurance industry leaders who are working hard to derail the growing movement for healthcare for all. Join us as we come together to learn more and develop our skills for effective advocacy.
