Help is available to certain low-income residents of New York who cannot afford to buy health insurance.  Medicaid, Child Health Plus, Family Health Plus, and Healthy New York offer subsidized health insurance coverage, direct medical services or other help at little or no cost to you.

In addition, the federal government, under Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA) Program provides tax credits to some workers who lose their jobs or whose work hours and wages are reduced as a result of increased imports.  This chapter provides summary information about these programs and contact information for further assistance.
