For Children, Youth, and Families

Caring for Kids

The Kids Come First Health Team knows that infants, children, and youth are not adults — their healthcare needs are totally different. They are still developing, they live with different illnesses, and experience mental health, addictions, and substance use health differently. They require a wider range of healthcare providers, have parents or guardians who co-manage their care, and attend daycare or school. For these reasons and more, we need to better connect health services for kids, making it easier and faster for them to access the care that they need.
