Sharing Resources: New Learning Series
Nonprofit agencies change lives. Their work is remarkable, and we want to provide any additional resources we can for the people and organizations working diligently for our community. This year, through our brand-new Highmark Bright Blue Futures Learning Series, we created four Subject Matter Expert presentations and conducted them for nonprofit agencies across our footprint. Participants joined session topics including Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) Standards; Protecting Your Organization Against Fraud; Social Media Tips and Safeguards; and Stress Relief — Ways to Avoid the Holiday Blues.
