We need you to convince your legislators that coverage for all kids can't wait and that you want legislation passed in 2008. How can you do that? Become a Health Care Reformer!
- Stay informed – look for resources on children's health and updated information on our work during the 2008 General Assembly at www.mdhealthcarereform.org
- Participate in our First Annual Leadership Forum on Sunday, February 24th in Chevy Chase, Maryland. Learn more about the Forum.
- Tell us your story. Nothing has a greater impact than a first-hand account of how the lack of access to health care made a difference to you or someone you know. Let us know if you will share your story with others with an email.
- Join one of our advocacy teams:
- Member Communications Advocacy Team (MCAT) – Legislators respond first to their own constituents. MCAT teams in key legislative district will contact their legislators when they receive an alert from the Coalition. MCAT teams will receive legislators' contact information and talking points for each letter, email, or phone call they are asked to make . Personalizing your letters is vital. Being an MCAT member from your home or office is an easy way to help make health care reform happen in Maryland !
- Member Action Advocacy Team (MAAT) – Teams will go to Annapolis during the General Assembly session to meet with key legislators. Our Legislative Action Team will lead these teams and provide resources and expertise. This is a great way to learn about and have a direct impact on the legislative process. Anyone can do this! No prior experience required. You just need to commit to being a health care reformer!
