During this live and interactive training, Community Health Workers in attendance will learn about choosing and using health insurance, workplace rights to take time off work to access health care, disability insurance, and strategies for managing medical bills.

This training will provide CHW's with a foundation to help patients make decisions about health & disability insurance, work, and medical bills. All attendees will have the opportunity to ask the speakers questions in real-time via a Q&A box.

If you would like a certificate of completion, you must indicate that when completing the Community Health Worker Training evaluation form. You must attend the entire event.

The evaluation and post-test are emailed after the event and are required for a certificate. Certificates of attendance can be submitted to accrediting agencies.
