On June 6, from 4-7pm, Grow Clay County and several community partners will gather on the Clay County Courthouse Square to provide families free assistance in signing up for Medicaid, Head Start, EBT, SNAP, and many other programs.

Grow Clay County’s Marketplace Navigator Tracy Myers said that a large number of families have recently been taken off of Medicaid and have had problems acquiring medication for their children. Myers said that the event aims to address these and similar problems by providing free assistance to local families.
