Newsletters > Summer 1998 > Our Goal : Bringing the Entire Natural Health Community Together, by Jerri Johnson, Homeopath

The Minnesota Natural Health Coalition is working to forge links with every possible segment in the natural health community. We are communicating with as many groups as we can, exploring common goals, and pooling resources so as to have a united voice on natural health care policy issues. Only if we all work together can we be effective in assuring the rightful place of natural health care in our society.

This past year, we testified at House and Senate hearings on occupational licensure. We spoke of our vision of a new paradigm for Minnesota - a state where people with many and varied talents and gifts in respect to healing can offer their services as long as the services they provide are not dangerous in and of themselves.

We are also talking with representatives from conventional medicine, the Department of Health and the legislature. We are finding a lot of support for our principles: freedom of choice in natural health care. We find that they are open to looking at creative ways of thinking about the old regulatory paradigm.

The natural health political movement is cropping up all over the country and things are changing fast. JOIN US IN THIS EXCITING PROCESS!!!
