The Foraker Group offers a new health insurance option to Alaska nonprofits

The Foraker Group, along with the Rasmuson Foundation, unveiled a new health insurance program today that is designed to create a healthier nonprofit sector in Alaska. The program offers two options that will help expand coverage to underinsured individuals and families or those who currently have no insurance.
