Description

The social determinants of health (access to insurance, education, etc.) impact individuals� quality of life and influence health outcomes. Children with disabilities and their families frequently face barriers in these areas. The Family Care Enhancement Project places �Parent Navigators�-parents of children with disabilities in clinics to offer mentorship and help connect families to community resources. This poster will provide satisfaction data from families, clinicians and community partners.
