Use These Resources to Learn More about Special Populations

Assisters like you play a vital role in helping special populations in your community, including underserved and underinsured consumers, understand their health coverage options and enroll in the best option for them.

* American Indian/Alaska Natives
* Courts and corrections systems
* General Health Equity
* Homelessness
* Immigrants, including a recent update to individuals with DACA status
* Individuals living with HIV/AIDS
* Individuals with substance use or mental disorders
* LGBTQ+ individuals
* Rural populations
* Veterans

These resources allow you to learn more about ways in which certain communities of consumers are disproportionately underserved in the Marketplace. Understanding these barriers and opportunities can help you build stronger relationships with these communities. Be sure to check the Special Populations help page [ https://www.cms.gov/marketplace/in-person-assisters/technical-resources/help-special-populations ] regularly as CMS is continuously updating these resources with the most relevant and accurate information.
