ONLINE: Webinar: Become an ACA Enrollment Champion!

October 6, 2017 @ 11:30 am - 12:30 pm

Register here: bit.ly/acaenroll2017

In this webinar we will cover:
-The current state of ACA outreach and enrollment
-ACA Marketplace 101
-Effective messaging and outreach strategies
-How to get involved with your local enrollment coalitions

On November 1st, 2017 open enrollment for 2018 Affordable Care Act plans will begin, and it will take a massive word-of-mouth campaign to inform consumers that the ACA is still the law of the land and affordable coverage is still available. This webinar will help grassroots activists and other community members get prepared to spread the word about the ACA and open enrollment. Participants will also learn how to work with local coalitions to directly support and promote outreach and enrollment efforts.

While the fight to defend the Affordable Care Act in Congress appears to be over for now, the fight to defend the continued implementation of the law is just getting started.
