DSA members will join nurses from MWHC and other members of the DC community at the People's Church on September 9th 5pm-7pm for a community forum on protecting DC maternal health. Councilmember Janeese Lewis George, Democratic Nominee for DC Mayor, will be joined by a panel of maternal health experts for a discussion and Q&A. Discussion topics will include: Protecting Maternal Healthcare in DC City & Federal Healthcare Cuts Creating a Better Healthcare System and more! https://actionnetwork.org/events/national-nurses-united-community-forum
