This report is being released in conjunction with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation’s Cover the Uninsured campaign, which in 2007, is focusing on the need for children to have health insurance. Now in its fifth year, the campaign is the largest mobilization in history to shine a national spotlight on the need to secure health coverage for all Americans. The Foundation and the broad network of business owners, union members, teachers, students, consumers, doctors, nurses, faith leaders and others involved in this campaign are planning activities that highlight the success of SCHIP, demonstrate the ongoing need for ensuring that children have health coverage and enroll eligible families in insurance programs.
