upon current programs. Applications are due Friday, February

Preparing for Medicaid Unwinding after the Public Health Emergency:
Working with Partners. November 16, 2022, 2:00 PM ET

The end of the COVID-19 federal Public Health Emergency declaration
will trigger the reevaluation of over 80 million Medicaid
beneficiaries' continued eligibility for coverage across the
country.

As states plan for the resumption of eligibility redeterminations
and disenrollments, the process could lead to significant coverage
disruptions and losses for millions of Medicaid beneficiaries.

Join us as we continue the conversation about the issue and what
Catholic healthcare providers can do to prevent coverage loss for
Medicaid beneficiaries.

We will hear from our partners at Catholic Charities USA and the
Georgetown Center for Children and Families on their tools,

How to Find Resources to Start or Grow Your Social
Enterprise. November 16, 2022, 3:00 PM ET

Do you want funding and technical assistance for your Social
Enterprise? Are you interested in learning how other Catholic
Charities Agencies operate Social Enterprises? Join us as we discuss
the basics of social enterprise and where you can find this
information. Whether you are just starting or looking to grow, this
webinar is right for you!

Catholic Charities USA is launching a new tool for all member
agencies called the 'Social Enterprise Resource Map' or SERM. The
map is a searchable database providing information by geography and
sector on:

* Existing Catholic Charities social enterprises
* Relevant grant-makers and investors
* Trainers and technical assistance providers, such as
incubators, accelerators, and mentors.

The SERM is a dynamic tool that will be regularly updated to keep it
relevant for new ideas and opportunities that may arise, for
example, the newly announced Workforce Development Social Innovation
Challenge. Following the webinar, the Map will be available through
the member's portal.

This webinar offers 1.0 Continuing Education Credit per session.
For those interested in earning a CEC credit, participants will need
to participate, live, in each session in its entirety and complete
the evaluation/post-test questions. Register in advance for
this webinar.
