Campaign for Better Health Care

What is the Health Care Justice Campaign?

The Health Care Justice Campaign is a project of the Campaign for Better Health Care, working in cooperation with over a hundred groups and individuals statewide.

 

Our mission is to make sure the General Assembly fully implements the Health Care Justice Act by enacting a plan for affordable, accessible, quality health care for all Illinoisans.

 

Together we will make it happen! Contact our staff members or click here to find out how you can get involved today!
