Medicare provides medical coverage for many people age 65 and older and those with a disability. Eligibility for Medicare has nothing to do with income level. Medicaid is designed for people with limited income and is often a program of last resort for those without access to other resources.

During this webinar you will learn:

• The differences between Medicare and Medicaid
•  The truth behind Medicare and Medicaid myths
• What happens if you have no insurance coverage
• Where to obtain information or turn for help

Join us for an interactive discussion to help reduce the confusion and how it can help cover the costs of healthcare for you, your loved ones or your clients.

John is very active in the public speaking circles and hosts numerous events every month for seniors to advance their knowledge and understanding of Medicare. John strives to advance his platform of assisting seniors in making informed decisions regarding their Medicare benefits.

Looking Beyond the Checklist of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACE’s): Recognition of the impact of trauma and the long-term health and societal impacts on children and families is just the beginning of changing how we see and interact with children and families in distress. This presentation will focus on increasing knowledge about ACE’s and how applying this theoretical understanding in a practical way – how we interact, the environments we create, and the ways we connect to children and families – is the key to building resiliency for the most marginalized and misunderstood in our communities.

Professional Development Certificates will be offered at the end of the conference.
