I hope you have been enjoying your summer! The back-to-school transition can sometimes be an adjustment for families and that is especially true this year given the pandemic.
Connecticut Children’s just launched a Back to School Kit to help families navigate the new school year. Please feel free to share these resources with families in your community.
The Back to School Kit includes:
What to do When Your Child Doesn’t Want to Go Back to School
When Will a COVID-19 Vaccine Be Ready for Kids Under 12?
10 Steps to a Better Morning! Boost Your Child’s School Routine
And much more!

Happy Birthday Medicaid! July 30th marked Medicaid’s 56th birthday! Medicaid is critically important to thousands of kids and families in Connecticut.
Did you know that HUSKY covers more than one-third of kids in our state? Last year alone, Connecticut Children’s cared for more than 99,000 children who rely on HUSKY, including 62% of the babies who received care in one of our Neonatal Intensive Care Units (NICUs).
