Dear Partners,
Families USA recently released a short analysis highlighting how states are working to ensure that children and families are supported during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Based on current research, children are less likely than adults to contract COVID-19 or to have significant health consequences because of a COVID-19 infection. However, children have been impacted by the pandemic with consequences to their physical, social, and emotional development, including missing scheduled vaccinations, well-child visits, and other routine health services.
Since the pandemic began, a number of states have made important administrative changes to support children and families. This analysis highlights some of the innovative policy changes that could serve as models for other states.
