Free classes to help individuals with chronic illnesses

Comments from Past Participants

Participants of these classes speak very favorably about their experiences in the class, the usefulness of the materials, and the effectiveness of the group leaders.

"I got useful information. Most of all, it helped to share questions, thoughts, and experiences with other people who are facing similar problems. The group was a real morale booster."

"The leaders have life experince which is great. A lot of people can deal with the technical part. The actual experince of living is a different thing."

"They can relate to our conditions."

"I knew what I needed to do, but I didn't do it...until I took this class and realized that I had better do it. Now I'm much better."

"It was a good reminder for me to not let the illness take over."

The genius behind the success of 100 Percent Access is the realization that it doesn't take a genius to come up with better ways to serve the needs of uninsured people. What's needed, most of all, is a broad-based commitment from local health care providers and others to work together to align resources, recruit volunteers and stay in constant communication so gaps can be filled as soon as they are discovered.
