“Healthcare is a Human Right” Speakout in WRJ

Following Congress’ decision to eliminate extra federal funding for Medicaid, 20 million Americans, including 38,000 Vermonters are at risk of losing Medicaid in 2023.

Join JAM and The Vermont Workers’ center for a speakout on Friday September 1, 2023 at 5:00 PM at 5 S. Main Street, White River Junction, VT where Upper Valley community members will be encouraged to come share their healthcare stories. Anyone and everyone is invited to speak up and/or listen to what others have to say about the need for universal healthcare.

“Healthcare Is a Human Right” Exhibit

The Vermont Workers Center is collaborating with JAM to create a month-long, interactive exhibit that integrates their “Healthcare is a Human Right” media campaign with physical space. Upper Valley residents are encouraged to come by JAM during September between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM Monday-Friday and record a short video or take a photo explaining why healthcare is important to them. Or, if being on camera isn’t for you, you can also come by and view the ongoing portrait series which JAM will add the photos and videos taken in their space to throughout the month.
