Formed by some of the people who successfully fought off attacks on our health care in 2017, we’re organizing adults with serious medical conditions and health care activists across the country as a force for change. We are uplifting health care messaging to a disability focused audience nationally and in key states and regions through organic and paid content, as well as offering free media trainings to health care activists and storytellers.
