Many moms across the country are self-employed or launching new small businesses—a status we fondly call "Mompreneurs". Whether you are a blogger, sell homemade creations online, offer your expertise by contracting, or own your own retail shop, figuring out what to do about health insurance on your own can be challenging.

For the first time in our country's history, self-employed individuals will have the same level of stability in their healthcare as those who are offered insurance through an employer. This stability will offer freedom to many who were too scared of losing their health insurance to pursue their dreams and peace of mind to those who struggle to make their expensive individual premium payments each month.

Here are some helpful resources on the new healthcare law you can share with the savvy Mompreneurs in your life.
