Proud of the leadership of CA to ensure all Californians, regardless of immigration status, have access to health care. Trusted community providers, with cultural and linguistic connections, are the backbone of our public health system #SaveMedicaid

[The Children’s Partnership (TCP) #KeepKidsCovered @KidsPartnership]

Q6: Our workforce is diverse—and health care should reflect the culture, language, and realities of those communities.

What role does Medi-Cal play in ensuring culturally competent care for children of color and immigrant families?

At @ChildrensInstLA we believe healthcare is a human right and as a specialty mental health provider, we provide free counseling services to young people where they need them—at home, at school, or at one of our centers #SaveMedicaid

[The Children’s Partnership (TCP) #KeepKidsCovered @KidsPartnership]

Q2: Health equity means that every child—regardless of their parent’s job or income—can get the care they need.What does health equity look like in your community, and how does Medi-Cal funding make that possible for kids?
