“THINK TEETH” ORAL HEALTH EDUCATION MATERIALS – …

SOCIAL CONTENT: DENTAL HEALTH POSTS

The social media content below has been created for Connecting Kids to Coverage National Campaign supporters, including partners and grantees, to use on Twitter and Facebook and is adaptable for other platforms. The content can be used year-round, and is especially relevant during February, which is National Children's Dental Health Month. The content intends to remind families of healthy dental habits and the importance of oral health care, covered under Medicaid and CHIP.

In addition to social copy, we have also provided suggested graphics to help make posts visually engaging. You can obtain these graphics, referring to the file name, on the Outreach Tool Library.

Our posts are crafted specifically to drive followers to your organization's website and encourage enrollment in Medicaid and CHIP. If your organization does not have a website, you can link posts to the landing page of your state's Medicaid/CHIP website or the "Find Coverage for Your Family" map on coverage1 for more state-specific information. Customizing posts makes content more applicable to your followers and can help people find local resources such as your website or important hotlines so that as many eligible children as possible are able to enroll in Medicaid and CHIP and receive affordable, quality health coverage.
