Doctors create ‘Vote Health 2020’ to register patients to vote

“We as health care workers felt like we needed to create a group ... to give people an opportunity to connect the dots that being healthy isn’t just about eating right or exercising, but it is about participating in your civic engagement,” says Dr. Manisha Sharma, a family medicine physician and the co-founder of Vote Health 2020, a group of healthcare professionals working to increase the number of patients registered to vote.
