Saving Medicaid, ACA, and existing healthcare programs from cuts

Dear Friends,

 

My friend Linda Yannone and I  have been working with different groups to expand healthcare benefits in our state. However right now its important to make sure that the healthcare benefits, (like the ACA and its Medicaid expansion program) that advocates have fought so long and hard for are not dismantled. 

 

We've been working with Daniela Giordano, National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) CT and a coalition of other organizations including CT Citizens Action Group (CCAG) in a Medicaid Strategy group to prevent cuts to Medicaid and where possible expand healthcare coverage in CT. 

 

At the present time Daniela is coordinating a program to collect stories from current Medicaid recipients about the impact Medicaid has had on their lives and what it would mean if this coverage was taken away in the near future. 

 

This initiative is just getting off the ground and I was wondering if you would like to assist in gathering stories from your friends family and communities.  If you are or would like more information please contact:
