The Vermont Workers’ Center, who leads the Healthcare Is a Human Right Campaign, is holding community meetings statewide this fall to talk with our neighbors about how this system will work and how we can hold our government accountable to making it a reality. Green Mountain Care Board members, Legislative leaders and healthcare professionals, discuss how our state can best fulfill our human right to healthcare.
