Community Resource Fair

Overview

Join us to learn how to support your community with health insurance resources. Join the press conference, learning event, fair, or all 3!

With HealthCare.gov Open Enrollment season starting November 1 and important federal Medicaid policy changes happening now and in 2027, it is that time again to get energized and ramp up our efforts to help our communities connect to coverage - whether that be Medicaid or the Marketplace during Open Enrollment.

The Milwaukee Enrollment Network (MKEN), Covering Wisconsin, and the Milwaukee County Department of Health and Human Services are co-hosting a press conference and community learning event on November 12 at the Kosciuszko Community Center to kick off this Open Enrollment season and ensure our community is informed about the changes coming to Medicaid.

The Milwaukee Enrollment Network and Covering Wisconsin invite you to join us for a Press Conference, Community Learning Event, and Resource Fair.

Spend the afternoon with us and attend all three, or join for the portion that matters most to you.
