CHF's National Network extends from our flagship sites in New York City to urban and rural areas across the country. From inner-city Los Angeles and Chicago to the small towns of West Virginia and the Mississippi Delta, programs in our National Network provide comprehensive medical care to at-risk children and adolescents via mobile medical units, fixed-site clinics and school-based sites.
Since 1990, when the New Jersey Children's Health Project became the first replication of CHF's flagship program in New York, CHF's National Network has expanded by nearly one new site each year. And it continues to grow, with new project locations in development all the time.
Each Children's Health Project is based at an academic medical center or community health center, ensuring that patients receive services consistent with CHF's "medical home" model of care. Each program develops innovative strategies to meet the unique needs of its particular population. Collectively, these projects overcome formidable barriers to children's health care - helping children and their families access the care they need.
To date, The Children's Health Fund National Network has provided essential primary care services in more than 1,600,000 patient visits. From rural, isolated regions to inner-city sites, at-risk children are receiving the primary pediatric care they need through CHF's team of medical providers.
