It’s a staggering number, right? According to Florida KidCare, in 2019, approximately 343,000 kids in our state were uninsured. And that was BEFORE the pandemic. Of those uninsured children, more than half were eligible for free or low-cost coverage through Florida KidCare. Connecting parents of uninsured children with this critically important resource is something that resonates with me personally.
Florida KidCare came in extremely handy for my family in 2014 when I lost my job and decided to become a full-fledged MOMpreneur. #dailybocaavery was less than a year old and I was lowkey freaking out that I wouldn’t be able to afford her pediatrician visits. Luckily, I didn’t have to worry. I was able to #CountOnKidCare.
I’m so excited to announce my family and I have once again partnered with Florida KidCare to share more information with Modern Boca Mom readers over the next few months.
