Advocacy and Outreach

Committed to Our Community's Kids
From bullying prevention to asthma management, we're caring not just for the kids who come through our doors, but all of our community's children.

Our pediatric health experts and child advocates cultivate partnerships and develop programs that reach under-resourced populations through primary care providers, schools, religious institutions and community events. As the area’s leading pediatric health system, we also contribute our unique, child-centered perspective to citywide health initiatives.

Community Initiatives and Partnerships
Children's National has developed a number of community health initiatives and school-based and educational partnerships.


Youth Violence Intervention Program
We offer families in our hospital resources and community connections to build a safer future.


Emergency Medical Services for Children
Our program leverages the expertise and data of our Emergency Department teams with our local emergency response system to improve pediatric medical care.
