“Egghead Evenings” take place on various Mondays from 7 – 8:30 p.m. throughout the summer at the Lincoln County Democratic Committee Campaign Office, 521 Main St., Damariscotta. These open discussion groups will focus on policy-related or historical topics featuring experts who live in or frequent Midcoast Maine.
On Monday, July 16, Professor Mark A. Peterson, Ph.D. will lead a discussion “The Windy Road to Universal Health Care in America.”
Summer Round Pond resident Peterson is a founding team member of the UCLA-based multidisciplinary Blue Sky Health Initiative to transform the U.S. health and health care system, which helped advise Congress on the inclusion of disease prevention and health promotion strategies in the Affordable Care Act.
At UCLA, he is Professor of Public Policy, Political Science, and Law, and has twice been the Chair of the Department of Public Policy. He is currently at work on a book manuscript entitled “Hardball Politics, Hobbled Policy: Contexts, Choices, and Consequences in U.S. Health Reform.”
The Lincoln County Democratic Committee’s Victory 2018 Campaign Office is located in the second floor of the Overlook Building at 521 Main St. in Damariscotta. There is plenty of parking and easy access from the rear of the building located across from Round Top Ice Cream.
