N2  - Cutbacks in public health care programs at federal, state, and local levels have reduced the health care access of many low-income persons. Based on findings from several California studies, this article suggests several roles for health educators intended to prevent cutbacks or mitigate their impact. <br><br>METHODS of preventing cutbacks rely on community organization methods and coalitions including health education professional groups. When preventive actions are unsuccessful, health educators may ease the impact of cutbacks by developing adequate education interventions for users of affected services and community organization strategies to improve access to remaining services. Specific methods are suggested and discussed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
