Read a recent press release about Healthy Kids Mendocino.

Healthy Kids Mendocino is working to ensure that all children ages 0 through 18 in Mendocino County have access to health insurance coverage.

This is a collaborative effort by FIRST 5 Mendocino, Alliance for Rural Community Health, Department of Public Health, Department of Social Services and many others to keep our children healthy by providing access to appropriate health care.

Healthy Kids Mendocino is reaching out to families in need of health insurance and making it easier for them to enroll in no- and low-cost insurance programs. It is estimated that 1,500 to 3,000 children in Mendocino County are uninsured. Approximately 1,200-2,500 of these children are eligible for Medi-Cal or Healthy Families. Healthy Kids Mendocino assists families in enrolling in these programs and understanding how to use them to access health care. In addition, Healthy Kids Mendocino offers CalKids to children not eligible for Medi-Cal or Healthy Families.

Who is Eligible

  • Residents of Mendocino County.
  • Uninsured children ages 0 to 19th birthday regardless of immigration status.
  • A family of 4 can make up to $5,000 a month and still qualify.
