The heat couldn't stop us! ☀️

Yesterday evening, eastern Jackson County residents gathered at Blue Hills Elementary to get answers about the changes coming to Missouri's Medicaid program in 2027. Children's Mercy's Program Director of Children's Health Policy Connor Stangler broke down what families need to know, and Jackson County Legislature Chair Donna Peyton (Peyton for Jackson County) is making sure this conversation reaches every corner of the county.

When policy changes threaten to affect the families we serve, getting accurate information into the right hands is part of the mission!

Stay tuned. More town halls are on the way! 📢
