Healthcare

The National Council of Churches, especially through its Committee on Families and Children, and the Health Task Force, senses that our nation’s cry for dependable, affordable health care for all people is growing in volume and strength.  Like the prophet Habakkuk, we believe we hear God’s injunction to “write the vision plain...”  In response, we are committed to work for a straightforward approach that honors all persons and is sustainable by both individuals and society.
