The federal COVID-19 Public Health Emergency (PHE) will end on May 11, 2023, significantly reducing flexibilities implemented during the pandemic to improve access to health care, food and nutrition and COVID-19 vaccines, tests and treatments. As frontline health and human service providers, counties will play a key role in protecting access to services for vulnerable residents once the PHE expires. This webinar will feature federal experts and local leaders to discuss federal administrative guidance, policy changes and best practices for county health and human services agencies to minimize disruptions in care.
