Clinic seeks signatures to protect health center funding
Lorain health center leaders urge community support by signing petition letters to congress. Chief Executive Officer Stephanie Wiersma says copies are available at Lorain sites 1400 Livingston Ave and 3745 Grove Ave and on the center website. The petition warns that nationwide funding cuts could endanger services for 11 million patients and force centers like Lorain County Health & Dentistry to close. Wiersma watched the House vote to cut 1.3 billion in funding and remains hopeful Senate action will restore support.
