Funding cuts proposed for Vancouver Community Health Centres
In early April 2014, Vancouver Coastal Health announced proposed funding cuts to five Community Health Centres in Vancouver as part of a local restructuring experiment.

Please support our sister organizations working to confront these cuts in BC by following and tweeting messages of solidarity and support:
