There is so much good work being done to protect our neighbors and the rights of all Granite Staters that we can’t possibly highlight everything we care about each week in the Happenings email. Consider this our supplementary guide to important weekly actions and events Kent Street encourages you to consider each week!
THIS WEEK’S EVENTS

Tuesday, October 13th
7:30pm to 8:30pm
We’ve got your back! Join MomsRising, the National Public Health Coalition (and more!) on October 13th for a Virtual Public Health Town Hall. We’ll dive into what matters most to families right now: affordability and access to care, health care mis/disinformation, vaccines and respiratory season, caregiving support, and more.
Public health is on a lot of our minds right now! Over 8 million Americans just lost their health care coverage. Meanwhile, harmful misinformation about vaccines has spread and routine immunization rates have dipped causing illnesses like measles and whooping cough to make an alarming comeback in our communities. Families and caregivers are receiving confusing messages and feeling stretched beyond their limit. We’re here to help!
