About the Webinar

Navigating benefits and insurance programs can be difficult and confusing, especially for those already navigating the complications of PSP, CBD or MSA. Join us for a webinar that will provide guidance on employer-sponsored benefits, workplace accommodations, Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) and suggestions on how to help cover costs for durable medical equipment, home modifications and transportation. 

Sarah Chen, LCSW, APHSW-C, will have time at the end to answer viewers' questions. Submit your questions via registration or email to events@curepsp.org. 

This webinar will be recorded and available on our YouTube channel following the event. We will email all registrants a link when it's ready to view.
