#COVID19, an economic crisis and a hectic election cycle — 2020 has been a difficult year for everybody, including children. Below, some thoughts on how parents and caregivers can support kids during these difficult times, from @nytimes https://t.co/J0gcnwiRDd

[CFPC Iowa @childfampolicy]

Folks across Iowa are stepping up to feed 600,000+ Iowans who are struggling with food insecurity. But they can't do it alone—we need our elected officials in Washington to help beat hunger in our state by boosting SNAP benefits until our economy recovers. https://t.co/F80tjeFJC0

We can’t afford to put health care on hold during the pandemic. That's why we're teaming up with @IowaChapterAAP to remind Iowans: free and low-cost health coverage is available through #Medicaid and #CHIP. Enrollment is open 365 days of the year. https://t.co/6IP81sc4e3

[CFPC Iowa @childfampolicy]

12-year old Yolanda King, granddaughter of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and actress Anne Hathaway want YOU to vote for kids and their futures on #ElectionDay ! Shout out to @SCActionNetwork for sharing this heart-warming interview. https://t.co/P2mQAGAgFd

[CFPC Iowa @childfampolicy]

A10: Iowans, go here to see if you’re registered, find your polling place or request to vote by mail https://t.co/bZaL4miBVo. Act quickly—the deadline to request a ballot by mail is this Saturday! Otherwise you can register and vote in person between now and Nov. 3. #WeCareDebate

[CFPC Iowa @childfampolicy]

A9: Fear of exposure to the virus has caused a lot of families to delay going to the doctor, and now we see children falling behind on their check ups and immunizations. It’s important for kids to stay up to date on their health to prevent issues down the road! #WeCareDebate

[CFPC Iowa @childfampolicy]

A8.2: What’s caused the increase?
‼️ efforts to repeal the ACA & cut #Medicaid
‼️ cuts to enrollment outreach/campaigns
‼️ lack of oversight for state Medicaid programs (including Iowa’s)
Addressing these problems is key to covering more kids! #WeCareDebate

[CFPC Iowa @childfampolicy]

A8.1: Number of uninsured children was on the rise, even before #COVID. Nearly 3% of Iowa kids lacked insurance last year — and that rate has likely since increased. ☹️😟#WeCareDebate
