Advancing the DREAM

Advancing the DREAM - What it means to me	The dream of Dr.King as it relates to health care for minorities is one that is of extreme importance to me because I believe everyone should have equal opportunity to all health care options that should be available for all regardless of race,creed, nationality, gender or any other biases.
