Subject: volunteer to videotape speaker training? -- on medicare for all

Hi NAHA and others,

 

Is there anyone who has a digital video camera and would like to videotape at least some of the speaker training this weekend?  We'd like to be able to make the information available to those who can't make it to the training ... and video is a great way to do that!

 

Please drop me a note if you are interested.  My email is laha...@knology.net

 

Thanks!

Linda

Speaker Training on

Medicare for All / Single Payer

Healthcare System

 

Presented by North Alabama Healthcare for All

 

Sunday, Dec. 6 @ 2:00 - 6:00 PM

 

Huntsville, AL (please RSVP for location information)

Donations requested, but not required

 

RSVP by Nov. 18 to: physi...@NorthAlabamaHealthcareForAll.org or call 256-513-9638   

Space is limited to the first 20 participants.

 

 

While healthcare reform makes its way through Congress, it's evident that millions of Americans will still be left without coverage. Therefore, the fight for an improved and expanded "Medicare for All" system continues.

 

This training session is offered to individuals interested in speaking publicly about Medicare-for-All / Single Payer. The format is based on training recently conducted at the national conference of Physicians for a National Health Program and includes copies of PowerPoint slides, possible talk formats, a practice session on how to answer the tough questions, and the best sources for staying up to date on the latest news.

 

Who should attend? We are looking for people who are committed to the ideas that healthcare is a human right and that everyone should have access to high quality healthcare at an affordable price. Both physicians and non-physicians are encouraged to attend this training. We will prepare participants to speak to a variety of audiences: churches, business organizations, medical groups, political gatherings, civic groups, etc.

 

 

Presenters include: 

+  Pippa Abston, MD, PhD -- Physician Coordinator, North Alabama Healthcare For All.

+  Wally Retan, MD, FACP -- State Coordinator of Health Care for Everyone - Alabama; State Coordinator of the Alabama Chapter of Physicians for a National Health Program.

+  Arthur Sutherland, III, MD, FACC -- Coordinator of Tennessee Physicians for a National Health Program; PNHP National Board Member.

+  Linda Haynes -- Co-coordinator, North Alabama Healthcare for All.

 

 

Please make your reservation by Nov. 18 to receive location details and advance materials for review before the training. Space is limited to 20 participants.
