At Pennsylvania Partnerships for Children, our goal is for every child to have health insurance that provides regular access to quality medical care for physical and mental health. Medicaid and the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) play a crucial role in keeping kids covered and healthy in every community across Pennsylvania from our rural communities to large cities. Through these options, 47% of Pennsylvania kids have access to preventive care like well check-ups and vaccinations, and to ongoing care for chronic conditions such as epilepsy, diabetes, depression, or autism. The three fact sheets in this series show enrollment by Congressional, state House, and state Senate district.

Every child should have health insurance and access to quality health care that is necessary for healthy development into adolescence and through adulthood. That care includes immunizations throughout childhood. Routine vaccinations for children are essential to keep them immune from life-threatening diseases before they are exposed. With the back-to-school season upon us, families should prioritize scheduling their children for well-child checkups so they are ready to learn.

Children need access to nutrition for their growing bodies and minds to be healthy and develop as they should. The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) is a critical component in ensuring infants and toddlers, as well as pregnant and postpartum mothers, have access to healthy nutrition.
