WASHINGTON, D.C. – Children’s Hospital Association reaffirms their commitment to support communities during this year’s Community Health Improvement Week, June 12-18.

Throughout the week, children’s hospitals and public health organizations will engage their communities in awareness-building by participating in educational events, forums, and sharing information about their pediatric health programs.
“Children’s hospitals are pillars of health in their local communities and ensure the well-being of every child is essential to nurture healthy, happy communities,” said Amy Wimpey Knight, president of Children’s Hospital Association. “Children’s hospitals, schools, health departments, community-based organizations, and other local partners regularly team up to support kids’ physical and behavioral health and well-being.
