EVENTS
Die-In Protest - Fri., Oct. 13
Friday, Oct. 13, 2023
Noon to 1 p.m.
PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center University District
1200 Hilyard Ave.
Eugene, OR
PeaceHealth’s corporate executives in Washington are trying to cash in by closing down Eugene’s only hospital—PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center University District. Their greed will lead to worse health care for you and your loved ones, longer waits, slower emergency response times and ultimately more deaths.
Join our die-In protest in front of University District Friday, Oct. 13 and lie on the ground with us for 15 minutes to demonstrate to PeaceHealth executives how many people will die if they choose to put profits over patients and close University District.
