    *As of March 2023, the Eligibility Database was updated to include an open text field for Notes at the bottom of the Enrollment Information tab. The new field replaced three other Notes fields that are described in the training, and should be used the same way - to explain why information entered in the Database does not match the Enrollment Form. The video and training slides will be updated to reflect this change soon.

    CVR

    Learn about how to submit data and bill the RH Access Fund! Billers, clinical staff, and anyone who touches the CVR should watch.

    Webinar: Understanding Open Adoption (40 mins)

    We teamed up with staff at Open Adoption & Family Services (OAFS) to help train clinic staff on how to provide compassionate support and accurate information to pregnant people considering adoption. This is the first in two-part series, the second part of which will be a Trauma-Informed Options Counseling Workshop to be offered in 2022.

    In this webinar, OAFS staff dive into:

    • Why the era of closed adoption is over and open adoption is now the norm.

    • How openness serves the needs of the adoptee, birth parents, and adoptive parents.

    • What a high-integrity open adoption looks like and how the process works.

    • Best practices in options counseling and adoption planning services.
