Medicaid Advocacy Trainings set for Billings and Glendive

July 5, 2017

As Congress and the Trump Administration discuss the future of Medicaid, they need to hear from the people whose lives are made possible by utilizing Medicaid services and about the damage cutting those services would cause. LIFTT is partnering with the Center for Community Change to empower Medicaid consumers to raise their voice.

LIFTT and CCC will be holding two events to educate consumers about the possible changes and record their stories to share with lawmakers and other opinion leaders. The events will be in Billings on July 12, and Glendive on July 15.
