What’s New with Your Child’s Healthcare: An Evening with Show Me Healthy Kids
May 14 | 6–8 p.m.
2 Hours Training Credit
Did you know: Your child can earn money for well care doctor visits? Birth parents can utilize transportation to visit their children? Some children qualify for a free sensory kit? Show Me Healthy Kids (Home State Health) Provides coordinated medical and behavioral health care services for youth who are in DSS custody (foster care and DYS), former foster children, and for individuals receiving adoption and guardianship subsidy. Show Me Healthy Kids (SMHK) also offers:
- Care Coordination Services to help you understand benefits, get help with appointments, find transportation* assistance and identify local community resources.
- An integrated medical home where each child has access to Primary Care Physicians (PCPs), behavioral health clinicians, specialists, dentists, and vision services
- Training Programs that provide clinical expertise and program information for families, caregivers, caseworkers and other child advocates.
This presentation will cover these benefits along with information on how SMHK can collaborate with Children’s Division, resource providers and community partners to ensure the best outcomes for our youth in foster care.
