What’s at Stake: A Community Teach-In on Health, Policy, and the 2026 Election

An African American Community Health Equity Council (AACHEC)

Fall Civic Engagement Series Event

 

The 2026 election is closer than it feels, and the decisions on the ballot will shape health, housing, food access, and safety net programs for Black San Franciscans for years to come.

Join us for AACHEC’s Fall Civic Engagement Teach-In Series: a nonpartisan, community-centered conversation about what’s changing and what it means for you.

We’ll break down — in plain language — what’s on the ballot, what’s shifting in Medi-Cal, CalFresh, and federal housing programs, and what community members can do right now to make their voices heard.

This isn’t a campaign event. It’s information you need, from people you trust.

What we’ll cover:

  • Key ballot measures in the November 2026 election
  • Recent and pending changes to Medi-Cal and Medicaid
  • SNAP and CalFresh: what’s at stake for food access
  • Housing and safety-net policy shifts at the local, state, and federal level
  • How to connect with Black health equity advocacy in San Francisco

When: Thursday, October 8, 2026 | 6:00 – 8:00 PM

Where: San Francisco LGBT Center

Cost: Free. Light refreshments provided
