Dear Friends, 

Earlier this month, you may have received a mailing from us entitled, 
"Local Non-Profit Celebrates 35 Years of Grassroots Organizing for Health 
Care Access & Justice." Champaign County Health Care Consumers (CCHCC) is 
celebrating 35 years of grassroots organizing for health care access and 
justice! Thanks to your continued support and involvement, CCHCC has had a 
definitive and lasting impact on our local health care system since 1977. 
Please read on to learn about the many ways our work has improved our local 
health care system, and how you can support our ongoing work. 

You might be surprised to know that many of the local programs and 
services that improve our community's health, and that we now take for 
granted, came about as a result of CCHCC's community organizing work - 
services such as school breakfast programs in county schools, hospital 
financial assistance programs for low-income people, nurse-midwives 
programs, prenatal care for low-income women, public health for county 
residents, free dental care for low-income county children, and more! 
These, and many more programs, are lasting legacies which CCHCC, with your 
involvement and support, has given our community. 

Please see the link below for "then and now" examples of our work that 
highlight CCHCC's impact. We have selected "clippings" from old CCHCC 
newsletters to highlight the "then" part of the example. Enjoy!

Thanks to your support and involvement - whether as a contributor, a 
volunteer, an Advocate, a Task Force member, or someone who responds to 
CCHCC's calls to action - CCHCC has had a tremendous impact on our health 
care system over the past 35 years. 

We stand by our founding premise that meaningful reforms of the health 
care system can only take place when consumers are active in the 
decision-making process. 

Please join us in continuing our work for another 35 years! Imagine what 
we might be able to accomplish with your support and involvement!
