low-income

You may have heard some of our federal lawmakers attest to their respect for Medicaid and its generally low-income enrollment base.

The other is that the federal match for traditional Medicaid, which principally serves low-income families with children, is lower.

School administrators cannot say who will process funding for rural and low-income communities if staff at the Education Department is cut in half.

Head Start serves 800,000 low-income families across the country, including about 80,000 in California.

Head Start, however, does not mandate a particular curriculum and is not the only child-care program available to low-income families.
