Your donation puts NC Child’s strategies to work for children and families across the state.
NC Child is conducting a qualitative storytelling project to reflect on a year of expanded Medicaid coverage to better understand the effects of Medicaid expansion on children and families in North Carolina. Findings from interviews will be reported this summer. Our team is looking to hear stories from families across the state who gained coverage through expansion.
Many children across our state face significant barriers that affect their well-being. Too many kids and families face discrimination because of their race, ethnicity, and place of birth. NC Child wants every child to have the chance to thrive.
Here are a few of the campaigns NC Child and its partners have committed to:
Some NC kids have unacceptable levels of lead in their bodies, putting them at risk. Eliminating exposure to lead means healthier brain development.
North Carolina can’t go back to work without child care. Access to strong early childhood programs is critical for child development, & for NC’s working families.
Children’s healthy mental health development is tied to their ability to learn, maintain healthy relationships with their family and peers, and succeed later in life.
