Training Overview:

This training aims to support people who work directly with people who are at risk of or living with hepatitis C (HCV). The training will focus on the role that navigation plays in HCV care, relationship building, and practical strategies to support HCV care along with other goals or priorities. The training will feature a panel of experts from End Hep C SF’s Community Navigator program. A basic knowledge of HCV is helpful, but all are welcome and will be accommodated. Registration is open to staff of all CHEP-funded partners. 

Learning objectives:

1. Be able to explain how navigation fits into the HCV care cascade
2. Understand potential support roles that navigators can play and how these can benefit participants 
3. Build awareness of how to engage participants and effectively build rapport 
4. Learn person-centered navigation skills that can be used in a variety of settings including integrated service centers

CEs will not be offered for this training.
