Covering the Uninsured Week
Over 1 million adults in Ohio are living without any health insurance. Approximately 155,000 children in Ohio are without any health insurance. They are our friends, neighbors, co-workers who are forced to gamble everyday that they won’t get sick or injured. Every community can make a difference by embracing this proclamation about “Cover the Uninsured Week”. Join thousands of communities across the country to raise public awareness for covering the uninsured the week of April 27 – May 3 that health coverage for all Americans is a top priority. The proclamation is a template that any community can use. To include the number of uninsured children in your county please use the Voices for Ohio's Children Child Data Fact Sheets county information. Let’s make 2008 the year to increase awareness about the uninsured and demand solutions from our nation’s leaders.
