Governor Bob McDonnell has proposed MORE cuts to Healthy Families, proven home visiting programs that reduce the number of babies born too early, prevent child abuse, teach low-income parents how to be their child's first and best teacher, and to ensure that children start school healthy and ready to learn.

Legislators haven't heard enough about Healthy Families funding.

Please call your Virginia delegates (House Appropriations Health and Human Resources Subcommittee) and senators (Senate Health and Human Resources Subcommittee) today and ask them to restore funding for Healthy Families home visiting programs.

Ask delegates to support restoration of funding for Healthy Families Item#3431h.

Ask senators to support restoration of funding for Healthy Families Item#343#10s.

But not everyone can look forward to this special time. Children of homeless families will sleep on the cold sidewalk. There is no money for coats. Babies will die because of preventable complications during and after labor. Children will go hungry when the schools close for the holidays because their school meal is often their only one.

 

Make this holiday season different for vulnerable children. Add one more thing to your holiday list: bring to life the season of giving by making a donation to INMED.
