Child Care Health Resource Library

The Department of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) has created a Family Separation Rapid Response Team Resource flyer that lists trusted resources for families at risk of separation due to immigration-related detention or deportation. It includes links to sample immigrant safety plans, school guidance, community partners, legal supports, and information on Knowing Your Rights and training.

It is available in multiple languages on the DCYF website: Resources for Families Impacted by Immigration-Related Concerns.

All children ages 0 to 18 in Washington can receive all routinely recommended vaccines at no cost from a healthcare provider that participates in the Childhood Vaccine Program (CVP). You may be charged an administration fee (a charge for delivering the vaccine), but you don’t have to pay if you can’t afford it. There are about 300 CVP providers in King County, and most require that a child enrolls as a patient to get services.

Adults who are uninsured can also access vaccines at no cost.
