Become An APPRISE Volunteer
Most APPRISE counselors are concerned citizens who have a question or issue regarding their own health insurance. Once they find the answer, they want to learn more and share what they have learned with others.
As an APPRISE Volunteer, you will:
- receive free training about Medicare and related health insurance products,
- participate in additional training and certification courses to maintain your level of expertise,
- become a counselor, a speaker, an assistant, a data entry person, or even a writer.
Whatever your talents or schedule may be, there is an opportunity for you. For more information, contact one of our APPRISE Coordinators.
