Dear Mike,
Join PNHP-NY Metro on January 24th for our first forum of 2023! We’ll bring together some of our movement’s top national activists and experts to give us a sense of where the movement for health care justice is right now and what we’ll be focusing on in 2023, from the perspectives of medical and healthcare leaders, union activists and community organizers. We look forward to a lively discussion!
