About HealthLink
Our mission is to protect and improve public health by reducing and eliminating pollutants and toxic substances from our environment, through research, education, and community action.
HealthLink is ... an
all volunteer, non-profit group of concerned individuals working
collectively to protect people from disease-causing pollution. We
thoroughly research problems of concern. We inform citizens about
environmental risks to human health. We marshall public opinion and
encourage the public to voice their opinion. As citizens, we get what
we ask for - - ask for good health and a clean environment! (HealthLink
is a 503 (C) 3 non profit and all contributions are tax deductable.)
We have learned that market forces do not protect us or the environment. We have seen government representatives overly influenced by the industries they are charged to regulate.
And, we have learned the importance of public involvement - that ordinary citizens can and do make a difference.
It
is time to influence the policies which will shape our future! We have
a right and a responsibility to insist that our health and the health
of our children be protected from a toxic inheritance. We invite you to
join with us and contribute your time and/or money. We provide
internships, practical experience for college students, and we welcome
volunteers. We enjoy working together in a spirit of community. |
