Oral Health Care Access Stories Needed
Help us Show the Need
November 2006
Stories from real people are effective in showing
the need for access to oral health care.
To help COHI make the case for increased
access, and
to help us participate in the healthcare4every1
campaign (http://www.healthcare4every1.org),
we need your assistance in identifying people whose
stories show the need for access to quality oral
health care.
There are examples of stories on the the
healthcare4every1
campaign website (http://www.healthcare4every1.org),
and a simple form to fill out when you click on "Tell
Your Story".
If you, or they, need help,
or have
questions, please reply to this email or call us at
860-246-2644.
We are at a critical time in the effort to get
universal health care in our state. It is important
to make sure that oral health care is included in
this discussion about general health.
Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Send us your news and stories on access to oral
health care issues for future
Updates.
Send them, in electronic to the
e-mail address below. One or two digital pictures
and/or graphics
are also good.
About Connecticut Oral Health Initiative
The Connecticut Oral Health Initiative, or COHI for
short, is a state-wide collaborative of dental
professionals, business and community leaders. Our
Mission is Oral Health Care for All. We work to
persuade, educate and inform decision makers and the
general public about the important issues involving
oral health. We started in 1992 as a project of the
Connecticut State Dental Association and
incorporated as a separate 501(c)(3) non-profit
corporation in 2003. We are supported by your
tax-deductible contribution and grants from
progressive foundations and businesses.
