Few things are more important than a child’s health. From checkups and dental visits to vision care, mental health support, and lead testing, these resources help kids thrive in school and in life.
Yet tens of thousands of children in southeastern Pennsylvania still lack access to care, ...even though many are eligible for coverage. That’s why child health is a top priority at Children First. Visit our Issues page and click “Child Health” to learn more about the policies and initiatives we’re fighting for.

Flip phones, low-rise jeans, and a growing movement for kids. Children First entered a new decade with the same commitment: making sure every child in Pennsylvania has the chance to thrive.
Every year, over 11,500 children in Pennsylvania are poisoned by lead paint, a completely preventable tragedy. Aging homes with peeling paint and toxic dust continue to harm kids, causing lifelong brain and behavioral damage.
The Lead-Free Promise Project is working to finally end lead paint ...poisoning in PA and protect every child’s future. @paleadfree
