(1/7) Skill Share Session: Unemployment and medical insurance

This is especially for faculty who lost classes and/or health insurance with the recent class cuts. The process of applying for unemployment and health insurance can be daunting. To alleviate some of the stress and to connect with colleagues who have done this in the past, we’ve set up a Skill Share session.

Skill Share Session

Tuesday, January 7th, 11am

Mission Campus room 476

Bring a laptop!

This session is for you if:

You want to learn more about applying for unemployment insurance, Covered California, or MediCal.
You have successfully applied for unemployment insurance, Covered California, or MediCal recently and can share your expertise.
You are distressed by the impact of these cuts and want to help fellow faculty who have been affected. This is a great way to get show support and get involved. Come spend some time with other part-timers who are going through this stressful experience, possibly for the first time.

Please complete this form to RSVP and let us know you’ll be there!
Remember, you have colleagues who care and want to help.

Additional resources:

— If you currently have health insurance through CCSF but will lose benefits Spring semester, you can keep your insurance through January 31. Depending on your specific situation, you may have had to pay your January premium to HR by December 27^th. Please see our 12/9/19 message for a full explanation.

— If you apply for Covered California by January 15, you should be covered starting February 1.

— To maximize unemployment benefits, apply right away. Part-time faculty are eligible whether or not you expect to have a Spring assignment. Detailed instructions on our unemployment page.

What is the AFT 2121 Affirmative Action Task Force?

The AFT 2121 AATF was created to address the culture of white supremacy and to dismantle racism. The task force’s first project was to collect and present data on the experiences of African American, Native American, and Latino/Latina faculty in our campus community.
