children with special needs and their families by strengthening their pillars of
support through education, prevention, resource coordination and advocacy.

Quality
We believe that all children deserve a medical home approach to quality health
care that is holistic and encompasses physical, behavioral, social/emotional and
educational well being.

We value the wisdom and expertise of families and look to their experience and
guidance as we assist other families.

resources in their own community, and strive to build working partnerships.

We believe that physicians, through the use of medical home approaches, can
maximize their knowledge and skills to provide the patients, families and
communities with support and success to improve lives of children.
Education
We value the idealism and promise in our future professionals. We provide
opportunities for awareness and involvement in community based projects and
services through statewide, domestic, and international educational experience.

Services
Children
have many caregivers providing support as they grow and develop. Teachers,
coaches, child care providers, and other influential adults will change;
parents and physicians, however, will often provide continuity throughout
the infant, toddler, preschool, school age, and adolescent chapters of a
child’s life. Physicians can have important, lifelong influences on children
during their lives.
