Description

The Family Navigation pilot program at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center has been developed to provide families of children recently diagnosed with a developmental concern with support and guidance on the various (and often challenging) systems and services recommended for the child. Former LEND trainees in the family discipline serve as Family Navigators. Information on program development and outcome data from participating caregivers will be available.
