Is the person who needs insurance in college, if so, insurance is extended while he/she is in school. Also, some states have programs that provide insurance. I know there is such a thing as COBRA insurance. You probably aren't from NJ, but NJ has a seperate CF org. from the CFF that provides insurance to anyone making under $33,000. Well, good luck! ~ Mary
