What we do
Partnering with Pediatrics
We meet parents and caregivers where they are.
Why Pediatrics?
Almost all families take their babies to see a pediatric primary care provider. New parents and caregivers attend 12-13 well-child visits in a child’s first three years—that’s at least 12 opportunities to change a child’s future.
90% of families visit a pediatric office
A Trusted Place
No other system has the same consistent and positive connections to families and their young children or stands to make the kind of broad-scale influence on our collective prosperity.
We focus on the pediatric primary care practices that serve the 7 million babies and toddlers in families with low incomes with Medicaid, the Children’s Health Insurance Plan (CHIP), or without insurance.
By partnering with pediatric primary care, we bring focus to the key social, emotional, and cognitive skills important to healthy development. In strengthening these areas for young children, we strengthen our communities.
We identify challenges early and prevent others from happening, so that young children have a strong foundation for a lifetime of healthy development, learning, and growth.
