Public Charge Information

This page is provided as a resource to our members for information on caring for immigrant children and families.  Public Charge rule changes occurred in March 2021; the 2019 Public Charge Final Rule is no longer in effect.

Please view the 4/21/21 webinar from AAP-CA1 and accompanying resources for more information.

This webinar is AAP-CA1’s second Chapter Chat Webinar in the series on caring for immigrant children and families.  During the webinar, legal expert Clarisa Reyes-Becerra, Esq. will provide an update on the public charge rule changes since March 2021 under President Biden.  The rest of the webinar, led by Anisa Ibrahim, MD, will focus on providing a welcoming setting for immigrant families that helps us begin a conversation about immigration-related topics and health.
