Organizations and Businesses

National
organizations and businesses are reaching out

parents, consumers and other concerned citizens
to help connect uninsured children to health care
coverage they need. These organizations and businesses
are distributing information about the State Children’s
Health Insurance Program and Medicaid coverage
to their affiliates and the public; many of their
members are also volunteering at local enrollment
events.
