Washington: The White House has named two Indian Americans as ‘Champions of Change' in recognition of their work to educate Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI) about President Barack Obama's signature healthcare act.
Manjusha P Kulkarni and Ranjana Paintal were honoured by the White House and the Department of Health & Human Services along with nine other advocates and community leaders for their work to educate AAPI about the Affordable Care Act (ACA) at an event here on April 24.
“For too long, many members of the Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander community have lacked access to quality, affordable health care,” the White House had said in a statement.
