On December 31, 2003, the Natural Health Union ceased operations. We regret that we are unable to continue to represent and provide benefits for the employees of those companies that had contracts with the Union and for those workers who may be seeking representation.

I have resumed my prior business of providing benefits for alternative medicine and natural therapies (see www.AlternativeInsurance.com for more information).

Although I am not at liberty right now to present all of the issues and challenges we faced in our endeavor to improve the workplace and create greater recognition and credibility for alternative medicine, it is my intention to personally maintain this website and continue the mission that the Union undertook. I will update this site as some of the legal issues we are dealing with resolve and provide as much information as possible for those interested.

On behalf of all the Union officers, I want to thank our former members for their support.

Sincerely,
Steve Gorman
former President, IUNHCAMP
