The Interfaith Fellowship for Universal Health Care is a multiracial, multicultural group of religious leaders of diverse faith traditions from throughout Connecticut who have come together to fight for quality, affordable health care for everyone.
To remind our state leaders that this is a critical year for essential health care reforms, the Interfaith Fellowship brought together clergy from across the state for a powerful “Where is the LOVE for health care?” prayer vigil outside the SustiNet Cabinet meeting, followed by a Valentine’s Day “Love Ambush” at the Governor’s Office on February 14, 2012.

To shed light on the need for universal health care, this page will feature video stories from the front lines of the broken, exclusionary health care system on a rotating basis. If you are a faith leader prepared to raise your moral voice against injustice, or an uninsured and under-insured individual or small business owner suffering for lack of care, we want to hear from you. It is critical that policy makers and the public hear how lack of access to quality, affordable health care impacts so many residents of this wealthy state.
