DACA Healthcare, Public Charge Resources, and Food4All
Dear John,
This week, we're sharing an opportunity to support DACA recipients' access to healthcare, a great public charge resource created by one of our partners, and an opportunity to learn from the California Food4All campaign. Keep reading to learn more.
P.S. Have you taken a look at our public charge resources yet? We've put together community resources, organizational toolkits, and more. View them here [[link removed]] .

[[link removed]] Partner Highlight: Kheir Clinic
PIF Partner Kheir Clinic developed simple posters about public charge in Spanish and Thai. For partners in California, these are great tools to put up in waiting rooms or other common areas. For those outside of CA, you can contact Ana Grande at [email protected] [[email protected]] to request a modifiable template version where you can add your logo and state's information.
