Unlocking Access® Trainings

Through Legal Key’s Unlocking Access® training series, partners learn about peoples’ legal rights, risks, and remedies, and the historical and contemporary policies that shape them. Team members are equipped with role-specific guidance on how they can partner with people to meet health-related social need priorities before they become crises.

Legal Key partners can access a monthly web-based livestream and recording through the Unlocking Access® Hub. The Hub contains complementary tools, templates, and resources to guide effective problem-solving.

Trainings are available to Unlocking Access® subscribers only.
