The ENDependence Center of Northern Virginia (ECNV) and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) invite you to a Medicare Open Enrollment informational webinar on Monday, December 1st at 2:00 PM.

This session will provide clear, unbiased guidance to help ECNV consumers, caregivers, and advocates understand their 2026 Medicare options, compare plans, review changes that may affect people with disabilities, and learn about financial assistance programs like Extra Help and the Medicare Savings Programs. If you or someone you support relies on regular medications, equipment, multiple providers, or community-based services, this webinar can help you make confident, informed choices before Open Enrollment ends on December 7.

We hope you’ll join us for this important event. If you have questions or require reasonable accommodation to participate in the meeting, please email or call info@ecnv.org, 703-525-3268.

‘Saving Superman’ is a short documentary about Jonathan, a 57-year-old man with autism who’s become a local hero. Affectionately known as “Superman,” Jonathan is celebrated for his everyday acts of kindness and has been a beloved fixture in the town’s Fourth of July Parade for nearly 30 years. When a new building owner threatened his home, the community rallied behind him — led by his best friend, Julie — whose grassroots fundraiser sparked an outpouring of support to save not just his house, but the spirit of the town itself.
