Family Connections is proud to partner with Rx Kids Ohio - first launched in Flint, Michigan and supported by many philanthropic partners - which launched in Ohio last week.

As the nation’s first-ever community-wide prenatal and infant cash prescription program, Rx Kids is providing life-changing financial security that is universal and unconditional. Moms receive $1,500 during pregnancy, and babies receive $500 per month for either 6 or 12 months after birth, with local community leaders selecting the program duration based on funds raised.

Eligible zip codes for now are: 44103, 44110 and 44114
