Early Childhood and Medicaid 101

The Tip of the Iceberg

Medicaid covers many of the children who could most benefit from better supports in early childhood, making it a vital resource for developmental health. Innovative changes in Medicaid payment mechanisms can help more children get the care they need. What are these opportunities? How can we—as parents, advocates, organizers and care professionals—put them into action?

Participants will:

  • Learn how Medicaid can be used to improve early childhood health and address disparities
  • Discover ideas on how families and community advocates, specifically, can leverage Medicaid
  • Engage in a Q&A workshop with some of the top policy experts in the field
