SUMMARY:Practitioners Unite! Our Profession & its Impact on Personal Relationships
DESCRIPTION:Practitioners Unite! Our Profession & its Impact on Personal Relationships\nFor many AFC® & personal finance professionals\, our drive and passion for our work comes from a desire to help others succeed with their money. Often times\, this journey begins with our own personal money stories that we share with others. Next thing you know\, a close friend or family member is asking for advice & the age old advice pops into our mind: “Don’t coach/counsel your family & friends.” But\, is that really the best advice? \nDuring this casual discussion\, we will share our experiences when it comes to our profession and how it can impact personal relationships. Should we help those closest to us? How can we let go of guilt if we don’t help? What are some good ways to say “no”? Should we offer discounts to family or friends? What can we do when our close circle expects our services for free?

SUMMARY:Medicaid\, Food Security\, & the Social Determinants of Health & Wellbeing
DESCRIPTION:Medicaid\, Food Security\, & the Social Determinants of Health & Wellbeing\nMilitary family readiness promotes service member and family health and well-being in a variety of ways. Among these are helping to connect service members and families to needed resources and supports at the community\, state\, and national level. In addition\, family readiness requires an understanding of the underlying economic\, social\, and environmental factors that influence health status and outcomes. These factors may interact and have a compound effect. For example\, a family facing health care costs may have to cut back on spending for necessary needs such as food and shelter. The inability to afford or access nutritious foods may contribute to chronic health conditions. Programs and services can help to address various threats to health and well-being. Medicaid is one such program. It is a joint federal-state program that has been providing healthcare access and coverage for millions of Americans\, including military families\, since 1965. Join this webinar to explore the connection between Medicaid\, food security\, and the well-being of your clients.
