November 1, 2019 - The American Association of University Women, AAUW, are presenting a series of programs on the issue of Rural Access to Health Care. The first of these programs will be Thursday, November 14th at 5:30 P.M. in the Mariposa County Board of Supervisors chambers.
This program will focus on our health care here in the Sierra Foothills. While we each have our own ideas on how our access to health care locally, the speakers will provide a broader perspective. They will address areas such as- how our hospital impacts the region, being a provider in a rural area and how access is impacted in the foothills beyond our county.
The programs are free to the public and light refreshments will be served.
