ADDITIONAL SUPPORT PROGRAMS

One of the most important health concerns today is health insurance coverage, and additional health programs and resources that you can utilize when needed. As a clergy, clergy family member or staff member, you may or may not be covered by the Arkansas Conference insurance program. If you are, there are additional health resources you have access to. If not, your church (district/conference/institution) may cover you under a different insurance plan.

There are those who currently have no health insurance coverage, however, but there are still resources available to you and your family, as well as for those who do participate in the conference insurance program. We offer brief descriptions of these resources below. For complete information about these programs, please contact them with the information provided.

Please note: We are attempting to collect information about local and regional resources that may be available to you, and will be adding to these lists as that information becomes available.

Resources for Clergy, UM Church Leaders, Staff and Family Members

Whether you're covered under the conference insurance plan or not, all UM Church leaders, staff and family members of the above can use the following resource:
