Spring Valley Support Group: Navigating Medi-Cal: A 3-Part Learning Series for Caregivers and Supporting Professionals- Part 1

Caring for a child or youth often involves navigating a complex health system. This three‑part learning series is designed to support resource parents, foster parents, caregivers, and the professionals who work alongside them. The sessions provide essential information to help caregivers understand the Medi‑Cal system and the services available to children and youth in care. Social workers and staff who support caregivers may also find this series valuable for strengthening their understanding of available benefits and helping families access needed services.

Part 1: Understanding Medi‑Cal for Children and Youth in Care
This introductory session provides an overview of Medi‑Cal, CalAIM  (Medi-Cal Transformation), including how it works for the general population, what is unique for foster youth, and how benefits continue under the Medi‑Cal for Former Foster Youth (FFY) Program. Participants will learn key terminology, eligibility basics, and how to navigate coverage.

Participants must register for individual sessions. Each session stands alone, and attendees will benefit even if they participate in only one.
