Outreach and Enrollment

100% Pledge Campaign

Individuals Served

Anyone who is uninsured or underinsured, including low-income children, families, people with disabilities and seniors.

Services Provided

The 100% Pledge is a partnership between agencies in the community that serve low and middle income families and the Consumer Health Coalition. These agencies pledge to ask all individuals they serve if they have health coverage.

If the individuals do not have insurance, they are referred to CHC for application assistance. Our staff also conduct trainings on public insurance programs and enrollment processes for agency personel. These trainings serve to strengthen the capacity of the community to further connect families with resources.

Actionable Impact

Organizations can contact CHC for a 100% Pledge training session. In the session employees will learn about public health insurance programs and the process for referring individuals to CHC for help application assistance. Please call Leslie Bachurski at 412-456-1877×200 to schedule a training session.
