Voting Guide - Kids and Families

The New England Alliance for Children's Health (NEACH), an initiative of Community Catalyst, in partnership with the Maine Children's Alliance, just released the results of its regional candidate questionnaire on a variety of issues affecting New England's children and families, such as health care, education, and child care. NEACH asked that we forward the results to all of you.  To find out where the Maine candidates stand on issues affecting children and families, please view NEACH's online Voter's Guide at www.votersguidene.org.

The Voter's Guide provides biographies and contact information for gubernatorial and Congressional candidates in New England, as well as a tool that allows voters to directly contact campaigns with their opinions about candidates' positions.  In creating and distributing their questionnaire, NEACH partnered with organizations in each New England state.

Please forward this e-mail on to your colleagues, networks, and friends to educate them about where the region's candidates stand on a variety of important issues. Also, please note that NEACH and its partner organizations do not endorse any candidate for office; this voter's guide was created solely as an educational resource.

Thanks, Ana
