Join Us to Help Save General Assistance Medical Care

Cabrini Partnership invites you to an important meeting designed to help save General Assistance Medical Care (GAMC). GAMC is critical to meet the health care needs of the "poorest of the poor" in our state. It is a critical issue, not only for those who receive GAMC or members of the state government, but for the entire population of the state of Minnesota.

Learn what you can do to help save GAMC.
Saturday, January 23
Hosted by St. Edwards Church
