Kitzhaber Speaks with Grantmakers - Health Care Call to Action

Thursday October 19th, over 50 members had the chance to hear former Governor John Kitzhaber, M.D. speak passionately about the current state of health care. His presentation included what has lead us to our current situation and pointed the way forward to health coverage for everyone using the public money already being spent on health care. Kitzhaber has started the Archimedes Movement to further this vision of health care reform.

To view a version of this presentation, which is being compared to Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Truth, click here: http://www.archimedesmovement.org/media ( Video: Health Care for the 21st: a call to action)
