Drive Thru Petition Signing | Elgin Township Democrats @ Strathann's

A new election season starts in soon, so we need to help out our Democratic Candidates who are stepping up to run in 2024.

A petition drive-thru is a great way for us to help them get the signatures they need.

Invite any willing family members and friends to join you. Park in front of 210 Wing Park Blvd, and stay in your car. A circulator will bring a clipboard with all the petitions attached. Sign all the petitions, and have a pleasant rest of the day knowing you helped a Democratic candidate.

KCDW Hosts: What the Health? Forum @ Batavia Public Library
Oct 21 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

kcdw what the health flyerweb 092223 768x994

The Kane County Democratic Women are excited to share our upcoming healthcare panel discussion, “What the Health?” on Sat. Oct. 21st at the Batavia Public Library 10:00 AM -12:00 Noon.

We will examine how COVID exposed existing inequities in the US healthcare system, revealing the ongoing need to improve and reform healthcare access in order to achieve health equity, including the Social Determinants of Health and the intersection of current social issues, such as Addiction, Aging, Climate Justice, Debt, Disability Rights, Domestic Violence, Gun Violence, Jobs, Immigration, Housing, Inflation, LGBTQ+ Rights, Mental Health, Poverty, Racism, and Reproductive Rights, as they relate to healthcare disparity.

This is a great opportunity to ask an expert panel questions like:
How can we improve access to healthcare by eliminating barriers for patients, and healthcare providers?

Why is our US healthcare system so complicated and dysfunctional for families, and society as a whole?

Who is affected the most by current inequities in healthcare?

When did healthcare become so expensive in the US?
