Public Benefits Tech Advocacy Hub: An Introduction

September 22, 2022 @ 4:00 pm

Technology is causing real harm for people in the form of public benefits cuts, denials, and terminations. The new Benefits Tech Advocacy Hub offers practical tools to support immediate fights against harmful benefits tech and is building a community to collectively strategize and change the way that benefits tech is implemented. Join us for a walkthrough of the new Benefits Tech Advocacy Hub. During the webinar we’ll:

– Share the goals of the project,
– Highlight the resources we’ve developed to help legal services attorneys identify and
address issues with benefits technology,
– Explain how advocates, technologists, and others can become part of the community; and
– Use a successful advocacy example from Missouri about intervening early in technology changes for Medicaid services to explore the Hub’s identification of advocacy points in the public benefits tech lifecycle and associated resources.

We will reserve time for Q&A.
