New healthcare co-operative for ROC-LA members!

We're excited to announce that we are starting up our new, low-cost, national health care co-operative! ROC-LA is teaming up with St. John's Well Child and Family Center to start the Restaurant Worker Health Care Cooperative (RWHCC), offering our members access to primary care, dental care, mental health counseling and other services. This is the first restaurant worker health cooperative that provides more than primary care in the nation!

We have an orientation and an enrollment for the cooperative on  Tuesday, June 7th and every Tuesday in 2011 (RSVP IN ADVANCE IS REQUIRED - email cathy@rocunited.org to RSVP). For more information on the health care cooperative, please come at 11am for orientation. Enrollment is from 11:45am-1pm. Come to 634 S. Spring St, Los Angeles.

How the health care cooperative works:
- You pay $10 per month into the cooperative and will be able to access services such as physical exams, mental health counseling, or annual dental check-ups.
- Beginning July 1, 2011, you will be able to access services at any of the ten St. John's Well Child and Family Center locations.

To enroll:
- You must be a member of ROC-LA
- You must be currently working in a restaurant or actively be looking for a job at a restaurant
- You must pay ROC-LA membership dues and the health care co-operative dues
