Community Outreach Collaboratives


The NDNRC funded eighteen Community Outreach Collaboratives (COCs) for the second and third year of open enrollment (2014-2016). The COCs were tasked with increasing collaborations in the community, dissemination and outreach efforts and enrollment of people with disabilities in the ACA by acting as a bridge between the disability community and enrollment assisters. The COCs had two primary tasks: 1) build cross-disability collaborations with other disability organizations; and 2) have the cross-disability collaboration work as a dissemination and outreach resource with their local and/or state navigators and assisters. The 18 COCs were (by HHS regions) as follows:
