Best Effort to Close the Austin Health-Care Gap
Celesta Danger

We can earn 200% of the federal poverty guidelines and still be poor … but not poor enough for Medicaid. That's where Project Access steps in. No more trips to the emergency room with a false name and address to get health care. No more staying at a crappy job just in case you get a health plan one day. Project Access links up generous doctors who donate their services to the uninsured working people of Austin. What a visionary way to help bridge the health-care gap!
