Mission

The Women's Working Group on Universal Health Care is a collaboration of diverse health and women's organizations working to move California toward universal access to health care, by educating and involving women and women's organizations in state and local health reform efforts.

Working Group Goals:

    1. Promote widespread public understanding that universal health care is a women's issue

    2. Promote the education and involvement of women and women's organizations in the health care reform debate

    3. Increase the involvement of women of color, women with disabilities and younger women in the health care reform debate

    4. Support public policy that improves health care access and moves us towards universal health care

¡Cuidado de la salud para todos – hombres, mujeres, y niños- es de importancia para el bienestar de la mujer!
