Health and learning go hand in hand

For our children to grow up smart, strong and healthy, insurance is a must. Every state in the country has a health insurance program for infants, children and teens. This is not welfare. Insurance is available to children in working families. For little or no cost, this insurance pays for doctor visits, prescriptions, hospitalization, and more. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has a website called Insure Kids Now! which links to every state’s insurance program. You can also find more resources for parents on this site.
