“Veterans Healthcare Action Campaign” kicks off with April 13 Forum Joined by House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi
As Congress debates continuation and expansion of the controversial Veterans Health Administration Choice program, a new group is launching a campaign to save and strengthen the Veterans Health Administration, while opposing accelerating efforts to dismantle the innovative healthcare system that serves more than eight million veterans who have served their country.
The new organization, the Veterans Healthcare Action Campaign, is focused on disseminating research and information to veterans and the broader public and will act as a safeguard against legislative attacks against the VA Healthcare.
The April 13 Forum highlights key speakers, including House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi and other veteran healthcare experts. The Forum is open to the public and veterans are strongly encouraged to attend. For more information, visit: www.bit.ly/vetshealthcareforum.

“Understandably, veterans can be wary and not trust us immediately – especially if they are women or struggling with mental health conditions. This isn’t only about getting veterans housed; we’re also establishing relationships with them out where they feel the safest – which may be in their tent or on a bench they frequent. It’s worth it to come out here determined to make a connection.” - Tonya Greenlee, Swords’ Outreach
