Pennsylvania health leadership committee action conference #2
December 15, 2006 – 1:00 pm to 3:30 pm
West Chester University, Pennsylvania

Over 35 leaders of health care reform oriented organizations, from all corners of the Commonwealth, attended the first action meeting in Harrisburg last month. A tremendous amount was accomplished including the formation of a 501(c)(4) advocacy organization:

Health Education and Legislative Progress Fund of Pennsylvania, Inc. – the “HELP Fund”

We set as our goal a fund raising target of $1 million to support a well organized and staffed campaign to achieve passage of the Balanced and Comprehensive Health Reform Act* by Thanksgiving 2007.

This is the opportunity for every organization, large or small, to join together to assure health care reform that works for families and business.
