SPECIAL REPORT
Models And Momentum For Insuring Low-Income, Undocumented Immigrant Children In California
Janice Frates,

Laura Hogan
Undocumented immigrant children are an underserved, vulnerable population that has not benefited from the recent expansion of publicly funded childrens health insurance programs. The California Endowment funded a two-year demonstration project to provide subsidized health insurance coverage to more than 7,500 children through five nonprofit organizations. Sustaining and promoting coverage for this population will require continuing subsidies through a mix of private and public funding. Locally based, comprehensive initiatives are in place or emerging in a growing list of California counties.
