Summary

Medicaid, CHIP and SNAP details at enrollment and every year.

The bill requires every school district and open-enrollment charter school to give students and parents information each year, and at enrollment, about who qualifies for public assistance programs such as Medicaid, CHIP and SNAP. It touches public schools, students, parents and the Health and Human Services Commission, which must prepare a model form with the state education agency. Starting with the 2025-2026 school year, families get eligibility information on these programs from their school in whatever format the school chooses.
