- Medicare Savings Programs (MSP)
- Medicaid Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)
- Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
We welcome participation from individuals who are eligible for Medicare (typically age 65 or older, or under 65 with a qualifying disability) and those who have helped an AI/AN family or community member enroll in one or more of these programs.
Date/Time: September 10th at 10:00-11:30 am MDT
Location: Hilton Garden Inn 1530 West Maloney Ave., Gallup, NM 87301 (Parking is available and will be validated for participants)
