About This Event

Join the Children’s Hospital Association (CHA) as we introduce newly developed procurement guidelines for AI-based youth mental health tools. These guidelines will help children’s hospitals and school systems make informed, responsible decisions when adopting AI solutions that address youth mental health.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why procurement standards for AI mental health tools are critical for youth safety and well-being
  • Key principles for evaluating vendors to promote privacy, bias mitigation, clinical efficacy, and transparency
  • Steps to apply the new guidelines in real-world procurement processes
  • Practical tools, checklists, and governance strategies to ensure compliance and trust

These guidelines were created by CHA, mental health leaders from four leading children’s hospitals, and experts from Opportunity Labs.
