Bill > HR1435

This bill extends funding for Family-to-Family Health Information Centers (F2F HICs), which are support organizations that help families navigating healthcare systems for children with special healthcare needs. Specifically, the bill amends Section 501(c)(1)(A) of the Social Security Act to provide $6 million for the period from April 1 to September 30, 2025, and then $9 million annually for fiscal years 2026 through 2029. These centers provide critical support by helping families access medical services, understand complex healthcare systems, and connect with resources for children with disabilities or chronic conditions. The legislation represents a five-year reauthorization of funding, ensuring continued operation of these important family support networks during that period. By maintaining consistent funding, the bill aims to preserve essential assistance for families who are managing complex medical challenges for their children.
