Making Sense of Health Reform
The Alliance for Children and Families is hosting three webinars to help our member agencies understand the challenges and opportunities inherent in the historic health care reform legislation passed by Congress.
Three 90-minute webinars, featuring Monica E. Oss, CEO of OPEN MINDS, will be held 30, 60, and 90 days from the approved bill.
The intent is to help members gain an understanding and appreciation of how the legislation will impact human service organizations and the services and programs they provide.
Each briefing will impart new information and opportunities based on changes and updates from the previous presentation(s).
The webinars will be limited to 150 member organizations. The dates and times are as follows.
- April 14, 2010, 1-2:30 p.m. CT
- May 25, 2010, Noon-1:30 p.m. CT
- June 22, 2010, 1-2:30 p.m. CT
Register for these webinars by e-mailing your name, title, organization, and e-mail address to Carey Drees, manager of member relations at the Alliance.
