A diverse group of partners are working together to make the issue of the uninsured a focus of discussion in Mississippi. To focus our efforts, we have divided into districts which correspond to Mississippi's public health districts. Below are the coalition members who have signed up for districts. If you are a member and need to sign up for a district or are interested in joining in local efforts, e-mail Shawn here.
