Mapping and Charting Session on October 12th
Our power analysis session on August 27th was an incredible success, and we learned how to put together powerful campaigns that can pressure our targets to change things in our workplaces and in the healthcare system as a whole.

This will be held at our Tigard office on October 12th, starting at 6:00pm, and all members are invited to participate.
