Healthy students are better prepared to learn, grow, and succeed. That’s why Brevard Schools Foundation is proud to partner with Florida KidCare to help connect families with affordable, high-quality health and dental insurance for children.
Florida KidCare provides health and dental coverage for children from birth through age 18, with free, subsidized, and competitively priced options based on family income and household size. Even if one or both parents are working, children may qualify for coverage. Families complete one simple application, and Florida KidCare matches each child with the program that best fits their needs.
Why This Partnership Matters
Access to healthcare helps remove barriers that can impact a child’s success in school. Regular checkups, immunizations, dental care, mental health services, and preventive care all contribute to student well-being and attendance.
As part of our partnership with Florida KidCare, Brevard Schools Foundation helps raise awareness of this valuable statewide program through schools, community events, social media, newsletters, and family outreach.
