What is the Covering Kids & Families (CKF) outreach campaign?
The purpose of the CKF campaign is to educate immigrant parents that applying for health insurance benefits such as CHIP & Children’s Medicaid for their U.S. citizen children will not harm them or endanger any family member’s citizenship status. Misinformation and fear still prevents many immigrant families in Texas from accessing important health and nutrition benefits for which they may qualify. The CKF campaign aims to correct the misinformation and inform immigrant parents of their rights when applying for public benefits such as CHIP or Children’s Medicaid.
