NPR: Even When Employed, Health Care A Challenge
[Casundra] Bronner is one of six people from the St. Louis area whom NPR has been following for a little more than a year. Like the others, she started 2011 unemployed and searching for work.

And for some, including Bronner, it didn't stop when they got jobs (Keith, 2/21).
