Cultural Competency and Health Literacy Training Series (CCHL)

The AHI PPS is sponsoring a series of customized training modules, beginning in January 2017, focused on cultural competency, health literacy, and addressing regional health disparities.

This first module in the training series is: Cultural Competency within the AHI PPS.

Trainers and presenters will facilitate discussion around cultural dynamics and needs within the AHI PPS' nine-county service area. They will introduce the Enhanced National CLAS (Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services) Standards, explore their relevance to regional health system transformation and interventions to empower individuals living in generational poverty. 

Two trainings in two locations are being offered. These are 1-day trainings with a limit of 25 participants per day. In person attendance is required. There will be no option for teleconference.
