Improving Early Identification and Access to Comprehensive Care for Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs

 Human Development: Early childhood is a time of rapid growth and development, and the foundations laid during this time have significant impact on health, education, and well-being across the lifespan. Expanded developmental surveillance and screening support early identification. The Helping Relationship: Care Coordination is patient and family centered team-based activity designed to assess the needs of patients, and link families with appropriate services and resources to achieve good health. Lifestyles and Career Development: Youth Health Transition prepares youth and families for a smooth transition into adulthood, especially youth with special health care needs
