FREE or LOW COST Health Insurance for Long Island Children and Adults

The Health and Welfare Council has been designated as a lead agency on Long Island in New York State's
Children and Families Health Insurance Facilitated Enrollment Program.  The Program is designed to
remove the barriers that prevent families from enrolling in Child Health Plus and Medicaid.

Enrollers assist families with their applications when and where it's convenient for them. They help them
 complete the application, gather the necessary documentation and select the appropriate health plan.
The enrollers are also able to submit the application for the families, eliminating the need
 for an interview at DSS. 

HWCLI is always looking to expand its enrollment locations.  If you would be interested in partnering
with us by giving our enrollers space in your facility or to schedule a presentation for your staff or clients.
please contact Gloria Baca at please contact call 516-483-1110 ext 430 or email gbaca@hwcli.com.
