Benefit Illinois 101: The Role of Community Organizations in Connecting Families to Benefits

Public benefit programs help people buy food, access affordable healthcare, and pay for household expenses like utilities or childcare. But many Illinoisans who are eligible for benefits don’t receive them. This under-enrollment hurts families and strains our communities.

Learn why community organizations like yours are uniquely positioned to help families connect to benefits, ways you can get involved, and resources available to support you.

Join This Webinar to Learn:

  • How benefit programs are underutilized and why it matters

  • The importance of outreach in connecting individuals to benefits

  • Ways community organizations can get involved

  • Tools, materials, and trainings available to support you

This training is offered every two weeks on Mondays at 10am CT.
