Starting in January 2027, new federal work requirements will affect millions of Californians enrolled in and/or eligible for Medi-Cal, including people returning home from jails and prisons who rely on Medi-Cal coverage for substance use disorder treatment and other critical care. 

Transitions Clinic Network and the Legal Action Center are hosting a series of conversations for California partners to: 

• Hear how criminal legal system reform advocates, health and reentry services providers, government agencies, and others are preparing for these changes, and to

• Identify the systems and tools that can help the people we serve enroll in and keep Medi-Cal ‍                                                   ‍

📅First virtual conversation: Thursday, November 19th, 1:00 - 2:30pm PT.
