Florida DCF helps families with kids facing serious illnesses including cancer get the basic support they need to survive treatment. They can help you apply for Medicaid to cover medical bills, get SNAP food assistance when you can't afford groceries, and access temporary cash assistance when you've lost income due to your child's illness.

They also provide emergency help for families in crisis and connect you to mental health services for both kids and parents struggling with the stress of serious illness. You can apply online or call their main number to get connected with someone who can walk you through what programs your family qualifies for and help you get benefits started quickly.
