KidsCare is Arizona’s state-sponsored health insurance created just for children. More than 250,000 children in Arizona lack health insurance. That’s the equivalent of 3,500 school busloads of children. But the good news is 130,000 of these children are eligible for KidsCare.

“Many families don’t know about KidsCare and so their children may continue to go without healthcare services,” said Pangrazio. “ABIL is proud to be associated with a program that will make a difference to these children.”

On Feb. 14, volunteers in communities throughout Arizona will sponsor Love Your Kids events to assist families in registering eligible children for Kids Care. Businesses, churches, hospitals and other organizations will serve as Love Your Kids locations.
