DC Health Link and its community partner, Whitman-Walker Health (WWH), will participate in the annual Walk & 5K to End HIV. Held for the past 33 years, the Walk & 5K to End HIV is Whitman-Walker Health’s signature fundraiser that calls on thousands of Washington, DC area residents to strap up their shoes and walk or run to support WWH’s mission to provide dependable, high-quality, comprehensive and accessible health care to those infected or affected by HIV/AIDS. In a city where three percent of adults are known to have HIV and an additional three percent are infected but don’t know their status, the Walk & 5K to End HIV plays a vital role in honoring lost ones, and raises funds and awareness to fight the epidemic. DC Health Link Certified Assisters will be on site to share in-person education and information about the Special Enrollment Period to District consumers, as well as answer questions about Medicaid options and financial help with plan premiums.
