REVIEWS

I liked the ability to practice and how interactive the workshop was

Participant Health Literacy – A Start

I gained some very useful knowledge about the Affordable Care Act and I feel equipped to share this knowledge with my community. I’m now able to serve my community even more than before when it comes to healthcare! If someone asks me, “What does the marketplace have to offer me?” or “Where can I find more information about the ACA changes?” I can give them an answer in plain English.
