Faithful Reform in Health Care

Faithful Reform in Health Care will:

  • expand the depth and breadth of support for health care reform within the religious community

  • educate people of faith about the issue and

  • activate the prophetic voice to promote affordable health care for all in the United States as a moral value.
Faithful Reform in Health Care has developed the following Faith Inspired Vision of Health Care

As people of faith, we envision a society
where each person is afforded

health, wholeness, and human dignity.
That vision embraces a system of health care that is
inclusive... accessible... affordable... and accountable.

Vision ~ Inclusive: Health care is a shared responsibility that is grounded in our common humanity. 
Vision ~ Affordable:  Health care must contribute to the common good by being affordable for individuals, families and society as a whole.  
Vision ~ Accessible:  All persons should have access to health services that provide necessary care and contribute to wellness.   

Vision ~ Accountable:  Our health care system must be accountable, offering a quality, equitable and sustainable means of keeping us healthy as individuals and as a community.
