Monthly Speaker Meeting: Affordable Housing & Health Care Activism
Today we highlight our affordable housing and health care activism! we do with two groups: the grassroots California Long Term Supports and Services for All Coalition and East Bay.
Long-Term Care Insurance: Progress in California
California Long Term Supports and Services Coalition (LTSS4All) - Juan Guerrero (right), Manager of Regional Organizing at Caring Across Generations, will catch us up on the coalition members progress on the designs for a long-term home care and services insurance program coming before the Legislature and the Governor in December. He aims to uplift the care agenda so that ALL families can get the support they need to live full, robust lives in this beautiful state.
