Description of Services:
Children Now are spearheading Coveredtil26, a statewide outreach campaign to ensure all current and former foster youth living in California know they are eligible for free Medi-Cal coverage until age 26. Previously, former foster youth in California lost coverage when they turned 21. Thanks to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), young adults who were in foster care at age 18 or older are eligible for free health care until age 26. The ACA ensures that former foster youth can access the health care services they need – just like non-foster youth who can stay on their parent’s insurance plans until age 26.

Additional Information:
Reasons to apply: No income restrictions, simplified renewal process, flexibility, and comprehensive coverage.
