The Philadelphia Benefits Access Coalition is a forum where Philadelphia based social service providers, case managers, enrollment specialists, policy analysts, community organizations, and residents can come together to:

• Learn about program eligibility and application requirements;
• Keep up-to-date on any proposed changes at the federal and state level;
• Create networks to share problems encountered in the field and best practices;
• Work with legislators and policymakers to improve access to critical social safety net programs.

The Coalition will offer quarterly training sessions in 2018. Come share your ideas for future training topics!
