Manage episode 377240526 series 3043268

The already significant disparities with access to health insurance for communities of color make this a health equity emergency.
Leigh Grauman, a licensed social worker and director of training and policy implementation at Portico Healthnet, explains the process, barriers to renewal and how people can help.
