Health For All, a Special Report by Sue Wilson
In 1981, residents in a low-income Sacramento neighborhood
saw the need to promote vaccinations for school children.
They worked with a local physician to launch a grass-roots
program. Today, it is known as Health for All and supports
a myriad of health care programs with its five-million-dollar
annual budget. Their Adult Day health center has served the
community particularly well. Capital Public Radio health correspondent
Sue Wilson tells the story of this unique program.

Health Dialogues Part 2: Communities Helping Communities
Communities helping communities is ultimately about creating
a vision of wellness for a community. In our March 4 Health
Dialogues program, KIDE will explore this vision of wellness
held by members of our tribal community. We will look at how
various projects, from youth recreation to the local farmer's
market, help to integrate and define the activities of healthy
people in a healthy community.
