The Impact of Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) & the Peer Recovery Movement: Supporting Homeless and Recovering Individuals

The National CLAS Standards are intended to advance health equity, improve quality, and help eliminate health care disparities. This webinar will discuss how health care organizations need to ensure that awareness, adoption, and implementation of the National CLAS Standards are incorporated to have a more inclusive definition of culture in order to better serve homeless and recovering individuals.

OBJECTIVES:

Define the CLAS standards, themes and recommendations
Understand strategies for decreasing health disparities for people in recovery
Learn types of peer support and value of services delivered by peer-led experts
Explore key cultural and structural drivers of peer recovery (homelessness, poverty and other factors)
