Overview
Please join us for our Annual Conference and Workshops in the mile high city of Denver, Colorado.
Three Pre-Conference Workshops Community Benefit, Project Access/VPN and Dispensary of Hope
Wednesday, October 6th ~ Noon to 4 pm
Main session Thursday, October 7th and Friday, October 8th ~ 8:00 am to 5:00 pm
The passage of the Affordable Care Act marks a new era in the development of community healthcare coalitions. CJA’s fifth
annual conference, “Health Reform: Mobilizing for Change” will showcase how local coalitions and partnerships can operate under health reform with
a mission and scale that results in the community achieving 100% Access/Zero Disparities.
The theme of the 2010 conference is that “community coalitions have a strategic role in making health reform work”.
Participants will see how to mobilize their communities using a change package based on national best practices in four arenas: successful community health
care coalitions, effective restructuring of health care, strategic use of community benefits, and innovative financing of local reforms.
At the conference, CJA will introduce a long term campaign in which community coalitions use a new type of quality standard
to guide reform of local health care systems. Conference workshops will help develop this innovative and collaborative approach. Leaving the conference,
communities can continue to work together to accelerate progress under the national reform legislation

We Invite You to
Become a
Sponsor!
In a changing national landscape we are approaching a new era of health reform. Local communities and hospitals across the United States are
being recognized as leaders in and laboratories of healthcare reform. Integrating health and human services is now more imperative than ever. The
members of Communities Joined in Action (CJA) are the leaders of these local reform initiatives. For this reason, CJA and its members invite you to
support our work by becoming a sponsor for this year’s national conference in Denver, Colorado on October 6 – 8, 2010.
Our fifth annual conference, “Health Reform: Mobilizing for Change,” focuses on providing attendees the answers and solutions to the
recently passed complex healthcare reform bill. Our conference will be dedicated specifically on how health reform affects community collaborative
efforts on the local level, while bringing together national best practices shown to be successful in integrating health and human services and
demonstrating community benefits and improved health outcomes for the most vulnerable. CJA has assembled an outstanding group of recognized experts
and distinguished speakers for a significant 2 day examination of the issues surrounding the health reform efforts.
Those attending share a common goal - they are committed to achieving 100% access to needed health services for every member of their community,
with a special emphasis on the uninsured and vulnerable.
CJA knows you share this goal, and therefore we invite you to join us to transform community health. Please review the “sponsor pledge form” for
details. Know that your support will allow us to offer a financially feasible rate to our non-profit community health leaders and others committed
to access of timely, quality and affordable services that eliminate health disparities.
Thank you in advance for your interest and support of community leaders working toward better health for all people at less cost. Please feel
free to contact CJA at 1-360-489-0496 or call me at 1-231-672-3202 should you have any questions.
Thank you again,
 Vondie Woodbury Board Chair
