Flint Rx Kids

Rx Kids in Flint

Rx Kids is the first-ever community-wide cash prescription program for pregnant moms and babies! Rx Kids provides all pregnant moms in the city of Flint with no-strings-attached cash of $1,500 during pregnancy and $500 each month throughout a baby’s first year. The goal of this program is to improve infant and maternal health, the economic and mental wellbeing of participants, and community-wide outcomes.

Once approved, families can choose to receive funds via direct deposit or a prepaid debit card:

1. The one-time, lump-sum, prenatal allowance of $1,500 will be transferred after 16+ weeks of pregnancy
2. The infant allowances are $500 per month for the first 12 months of life. 

After participants have been fully approved and verified, a notification will be sent via text or SMS when the transfer of funds is sent out. Please allow a few business days for funds to come through after receiving this message. Questions? Contact customer service at support@rxkids.zendesk.com.
