You're Invited: Summer Webinar Series to share impacts of House Resolution 1

On July 4, 2025, the president signed into law federal H.R. 1. It impacts programs managed by the Department of Social and Health Services as well as other state social services agencies. H.R. 1 includes changes to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and Medicaid (called Apple Health in our state), which serve many of our state’s most vulnerable people.

You are invited to attend an H.R. 1 webinar series this summer, which will explain some of these significant changes and how DSHS is implementing them. Each webinar will provide time for questions and answers.

  • SNAP and Medicaid H.R. 1 Changes Overview Webinar: 11 a.m. to noon Wednesday, July 15, 2026, on Zoom. This webinar will broadly discuss policy and funding changes. 
  • SNAP H.R. 1 Work-Requirement Changes: 11 a.m. to noon Aug. 19, 2026, on Zoom
  • SNAP and Medicaid Long-term Care H.R. 1 Noncitizen Eligibility: 11 a.m. to noon Sept. 9, 2026, on Zoom

The informational portion of each webinar will be recorded and posted to the DSHS H.R. 1 webpage, which has many resources and is frequently updated. 

Each webinar will have an American Sign Language interpreter, and closed captioning will be available. If you need a different accommodation, please contact Programs and Policy Senior Advisor Babs Roberts at Babette.Roberts@dshs.wa.gov
