Medicaid Waiver Q&A with Moms in Motion
There continues to be a great demand for assistance in understanding the Medicaid Waiver application and eligibility process, so we are offering another opportunity to learn more! Come join us for some social time with other parents/caregivers in similar situations. As always this is a FREE event however, please let us know who will be attending. We are sorry, but we cannot offer childcare for this event.
