Health Action Tool Kit: 2007


Every year, Families USA sponsors a national conference—a gathering of grassroots health care advocates from across the country. These Health Action conferences offer a chance for the community of health care advocates to come together, share ideas, and prepare for the year ahead. As part of the preparations for this national meeting, Families USA assembles a large binder of materials covering a range of health care issues—Medicare, Medicaid, children's health, increased health coverage for the uninsured, minority health, global health—and useful advocacy tools (media tips, useful Web addresses, and so forth). These materials come from numerous different sources, including government agencies, Families USA, and other national and state organizations. The binder is given to everyone who participates in the Health Action conference. Below, we link to all of the contents of the latest binder that are available online.
