Our
February grant will fund ob/gyn appointments,
prescriptions, and other medical necessities for
pregnant Hispanic immigrants in Northern
Kentucky. Currently under Kentucky Medicaid
guidelines, immigrants without citizenship status
are eligible to receive Medicaid for just two
months of their pregnancy. Grant funds will
help cover the cost the expectant mothers
clinic fees and other outpatient expenses for the
remainder of their pregnancies to ensure proper
prenatal care for both the mother and
child.
An outreach
service opportunity is planned to also give time
and talent to our recipient. This
months service project will be painting of
the waiting room and exam rooms at
HealthPoints Greenup location in
Covington.

lookout for the service date and sign-up
opportunities.
