Why the Caring Program is Needed

Thousands of Alabama children still do not receive the healthcare they need because their parents cannot afford medical insurance. These working parents earn too much money to qualify for government-assisted medical care, yet not enough to pay for medical coverage. The Caring Program makes it possible for parents to continue to work, and gives them peace of mind of knowing that their children’s healthcare needs will be met.

The Caring Program gives children the opportunity to grow toward good health — something many of us take for granted. With the proper healthcare, medical crises can often be prevented and minor illnesses can be treated before they become serious.

"Children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future." — John Kennedy
