About

The Refugee and Immigrant Helpline (1-800-814-4806) is a connection to helpful information, resources and services in your community. Navigators are here to provide support and guidance you can trust. Connect with resources for jobs, food, health, housing, legal help, language classes and more.

Health Care Providers/Clinics

Health care providers can check for health conditions or refer to specialists if needed. If the child already has a clinic, the next step is to schedule an appointment for a well visit or evaluation of developmental/behavioral concerns.

For children covered by Medical Assistance, well-child checkups (medical and dental) called Child and Teen Checkups (C&TC), are free for newborns through age 20 years. If you do not have a health care provider or clinic, contact your C&TC coordinator for help (use the drop-down box to select your county or tribe).
