The Medicare/Medicaid Assistance Program:

Information Session on February 25th at 1:00pm at the Senior Health Building on the St. Joseph Hospital campus. Everyone is invited.

The MMAP of Catholic Social Services is very much in need of volunteers. If you have a background in finance, health insurance or education, this may be the right niche for you. We provide lots of training and support to help our volunteers gain an understanding of Medicare and Medicaid information. Our trained MMAP volunteer counselors are then able to help other seniors apply for the benefits they need. We have helped many people over the last 23 years. We'd love to have you join our team.

Become a MMAP volunteer. For more information, please contact Stephanie Levijoki 734-712-3625, slevijoki@csswashtenaw.org
