| PART I, LINE 3C: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OF WISCONSIN, INC. ("CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL") USES THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES TO DETERMINE ELIGIBILITY AT BOTH OF ITS HOSPITAL SITES. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL IS DEDICATED TO ENSURING THAT PATIENTS RECEIVE ALL MEDICALLY NECESSARY CARE. IN FURTHERANCE OF THAT OBJECTIVE, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL MAINTAINS A FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE POLICY ("FAP"), PURSUANT TO WHICH CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL PROVIDES DISCOUNTED OR FREE CARE TO PATIENTS WHO ARE UNINSURED OR OTHERWISE UNABLE TO PAY ALL OR A PORTION OF THEIR BILLED CHARGES. THE POLICY GENERALLY PROVIDES THAT ELIGIBILITY IS DETERMINED BASED ON HOUSEHOLD INCOME AND FAMILY SIZE, AND SPECIFICALLY INCORPORATES CRITERIA SET FORTH UNDER THE FEDERAL POVERTY GUIDELINES. |
| PART I, LINE 6A: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND HEALTH SYSTEM, INC. ("CHHS"), THE SOLE CORPORATE MEMBER OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL, PREPARES A COMMUNITY BENEFIT REPORT ON BEHALF OF BOTH OF THE HOSPITALS AND ITS AFFILIATES. THE REPORT IS FILED WITH THE WISCONSIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION AND IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE OR UPON REQUEST. |
| PART I, LINE 7: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL USED A COST-TO-CHARGE RATIO, DERIVED FROM WORKSHEET 2, RATIO OF PATIENT CARE COST-TO-CHARGES, TO CALCULATE THE AMOUNTS REPORTED IN LINES 7A AND 7B FOR CHARITY CARE AT COST AND UNREIMBURSED MEDICAID. FOR LINES 7E, 7F, 7G, 7H, AND 7I, THE HOSPITAL USED COSTS FROM ITS ACCOUNTING SYSTEM. FOR LINE 7G, THE COSTS FROM THE ACCOUNTING SYSTEM WERE ADJUSTED FOR MEDICAID AND CHARITY CARE PATIENTS, AS THE COST RELATED TO THESE PATIENTS WAS TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT IN LINES 7A AND 7B. THE WISCONSIN MEDICAID PROGRAM PROVIDES COVERAGE FOR THE VAST MAJORITY OF CHILDREN WHO REQUIRE MEDICAL CARE BUT ARE UNINSURED OR UNDERINSURED. HOSPITAL REPRESENTATIVES WORK EXTENSIVELY WITH PATIENTS' FAMILIES TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND THE AVAILABILITY OF STATE AID AND TO ASSIST THEM IN ENROLLING IN THE PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES THE PATIENT WITH THE GREATEST BENEFIT. FOR THAT REASON, THE AMOUNT OF CHARITY CARE RENDERED BY THE HOSPITAL IS CONSIDERABLY SMALLER THAN LEVELS EXPERIENCED BY COMMUNITY HOSPITALS OR OTHER FACILITIES SERVING THE ADULT POPULATION. |
| PART I, LINE 7G: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL INCLUDED AS SUBSIDIZED HEALTH SERVICES ON PART I, LINE 7G $8,610,740 PAID TO CHILDREN'S MEDICAL GROUP, INC. ("CMG"), WHICH IS A SECTION 501(C)(3) ORGANIZATION AND AN AFFILIATE OF THE HOSPITAL THAT PROVIDES PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN SERVICES IN SOUTHEASTERN WISCONSIN. THE PAYMENTS WERE MADE TO SUBSIDIZE CMG CLINICS WITHIN MILWAUKEE COUNTY THAT PROVIDE PRIMARY CARE PRIMARILY TO CHILDREN ENROLLED IN THE WISCONSIN MEDICAID PROGRAM OR WHO ARE UNINSURED. |
| PART II, COMMUNITY BUILDING ACTIVITIES: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIES INCLUDE PROGRAMS THAT ADDRESS THE ROOT CAUSES OF HEALTH PROBLEMS FOR CHILDREN, SUCH AS POVERTY AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES. THESE COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIES INCLUDE STAFF PARTICIPATION ON COMMUNITY BOARDS, COALITIONS AND/OR COMMITTEES THAT ASSIST IN IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF THE COMMUNITY. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S PARENT ORGANIZATION, CHHS, ALSO PERFORMS COMMUNITY-BUILDING ACTIVITIES INCLUDING COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT ADVOCACY, WHICH ARE FURTHER DISCUSSED IN SCHEDULE H PART VI, LINE 6. |
| PART III, LINE 2: | THE AMOUNT REPORTED IN PART III, SECTION A, LINE 2 IS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S BAD DEBT EXPENSE INCLUDED AS A REDUCTION OF PATIENT REVENUE, AND IS THE SUM OF ALL OF THE UNCOLLECTED PATIENT ACCOUNT BALANCES SENT TO THIRD PARTY COLLECTIONS, REDUCED BY ACTUAL RECOVERIES, REDUCED BY ANY ACCOUNTS RETURNED TO THE HOSPITAL BY THE THIRD PARTY COLLECTION AGENCY, AND INCREASED BY AN ESTIMATE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS WHEN APPLICABLE. THE AMOUNT DOES NOT INCLUDE DISCOUNTS PROVIDED UNDER THE HOSPITAL'S FAP, INCLUDING DISCOUNTS PROVIDED TO SELF-PAY ACCOUNTS, WHICH ARE ALSO REPORTED AS A REDUCTION OF PATIENT REVENUE. |
| PART III, LINE 4: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S FINANCIAL STATEMENTS INCLUDE A FOOTNOTE DESCRIBING BAD DEBT EXPENSE. SEE PAGE 23 OF THE ATTACHED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. |
| PART III, LINE 8: | CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL USED ITS FILED MEDICARE COST REPORTS TO OBTAIN THE MEDICARE ALLOWABLE COST REPORTED ON PART III, SECTION B. THE YEARLY INTERIM RATE ADJUSTMENTS WERE NOT ENOUGH TO COVER THE COSTS FOR SERVICES PROVIDED TO OUR MEDICARE PATIENTS. |
| PART III, LINE 9B: | AT ALL LOCATIONS, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL UNDERTAKES EXTENSIVE MEASURES TO COMMUNICATE WITH THE FAMILIES OF PATIENTS WITH SELF-PAY BALANCES. IN MANY CASES, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL AND FAMILIES WORK TOGETHER TO OBTAIN COVERAGE THROUGH THE STATE MEDICAID PROGRAM. IN CASES WHERE MEDICAID COVERAGE IS NOT AVAILABLE, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL SEEKS TO OBTAIN INFORMATION NECESSARY TO DETERMINE THE PATIENT'S ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S FAP. ONCE A PATIENT'S ELIGIBILITY FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE HAS BEEN DETERMINED, THE BALANCE ON THE PATIENT'S ACCOUNT IS ADJUSTED ACCORDINGLY. IN ADDITION, HOSPITAL PERSONNEL WORK CLOSELY WITH FAMILIES TO DETERMINE THEIR ABILITY TO PAY THE ADJUSTED BALANCES; SUCH EFFORTS OFTEN RESULT IN PAYMENT PLANS INTENDED TO PERMIT THE GRADUAL PAYMENT OF AMOUNTS DUE WITHOUT IMPOSING UNDUE FINANCIAL HARDSHIP ON FAMILIES ALREADY DEALING WITH THE CHALLENGES OF CHILDREN'S HEALTH ISSUES. UNFORTUNATELY, THERE REMAIN CIRCUMSTANCES WHERE PATIENTS' ELIGIBILITY FOR FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE CANNOT BE DETERMINED DUE TO THE INACCESSIBILITY OF THE FAMILY, OR THE FAMILY'S INABILITY OR REFUSAL TO PROVIDE THE REQUIRED INFORMATION. IN SUCH CASES, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL FOLLOWS AN ESTABLISHED MULTI-STEP PROCESS IN AN EFFORT TO REACH THE FAMILY AND PROVIDE THEM WITH INFORMATION ABOUT THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE UNDER THE PROGRAM. ACCOUNTS ARE SENT TO COLLECTIONS ONLY AFTER ALL ESTABLISHED STEPS HAVE BEEN UNDERTAKEN WITHOUT SUCCESS. |
| PART VI, LINE 2: | OUR CHNA-IS PROCESS FOLLOWS THE ASSOCIATION FOR COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT'S MODEL. CHILDREN'S WORKS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH OTHER AREA HEALTH SYSTEMS IN THE MILWAUKEE HEALTH CARE PARTNERSHIP (MHCP), TO COMPLETE A JOINT, COMPREHENSIVE HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT IN MILWAUKEE COUNTY. MHCP BRINGS TOGETHER LOCAL HEALTH SYSTEMS, HOSPITALS, FEDERALLY QUALIFIED HEALTH CENTERS, AND LOCAL AND STATE PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS TO CREATE A HEALTHIER MILWAUKEE. CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN IS AN ACTIVE PARTNER IN THE MHCP.CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN HOSPITAL FOX VALLEY COLLABORATES WITH THE TRI-COUNTY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT COALITION (TRI-CO CHIC) TO COMMISSION A JOINT, COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNITY HEALTH NEEDS ASSESSMENT. THE TRI-CO CHIC INCLUDES FIVE PUBLIC HEALTH DEPARTMENTS AND FOUR HEALTH CARE SYSTEMS IN CALUMET, OUTAGAMIE AND WINNEBAGO COUNTIES. BOTH COMMUNITIES USED A COMBINATION OF COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEYS STAKEHOLDER INTERVIEWS AND FOCUS GROUPS TO OBTAIN PRIMARY DATA. IN THIS CYCLE, CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN MADE A SPECIFIC EFFORT TO INCREASE RESPONSES TO THE MHCP COMMUNITY HEALTH SURVEY FROM FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN. DURING THE SURVEY WINDOW:- OUR CORE TEAM MAINTAINED A PRESENCE AT THREE OF OUR PRIMARY CARE CLINICS ENGAGING FAMILIES TO COMPLETE THE SURVEY THROUGH THE ONLINE LINK AND PAPER COPIES. - WE COLLABORATED WITH OUR INCLUSION, DIVERSITY & EQUITY AND INCLUSION RESOURCE GROUPS TO SHARE POSTCARDS AND A QR CODE TO THE SURVEY AT KEY SYSTEM LEVEL EVENTS.- OUR MARKETING AND COMMUNICATIONS TEAM SHARED POSTS AND MESSAGING THOUGH SOCIAL MEDIA.- PROGRAMS WITH COMMUNITY SERVICE COMPONENTS DISTRIBUTED THE POSTCARD, QR CODE, AND PAPER COPIES OF THE SURVEY AT NEIGHBORHOOD COMMUNITY EVENTS AND FESTIVALS. - INTERNALLY, ANNOUNCEMENTS AND LINKS TO THE SURVEY WERE SENT OUT PERIODICALLY WITH A REQUEST TO SHARE WITH FAMILIES IN THEIR PRACTICES AND PERSONAL COMMUNITIES. WE USED SIMILAR STRATEGIES TO PROMOTE THE NORTHEAST WISCONSIN WELLBEING SURVEY, CONDUCTED IN EARLY 2025, WHICH PROVIDED INFORMATION TO THE TRI-CO CHIC ASSESSMENT. SECONDARY DATA WAS DERIVED FROM HEALTH COMPASS MILWAUKEE, , FOX VALLEY DATA EXCHANGE, , WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES, US CENSUS BUREAU, THE YOUTH RISK BEHAVIOR SURVEY, AND OTHER PUBLIC AND GOVERNMENT SOURCES. CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN'S ADVISORY COMMITTEE EXAMINED THE TOP HEALTH ISSUES FROM THE MHCP AND THE TRI-CO CHIC IN ADDITION TO OTHER HEALTH CONCERNS FACING THE PEDIATRIC POPULATION WE CONSIDERED THE PREVALENCE, SEVERITY, INEQUITY AND FEASIBILITY OF EACH HEALTH ISSUE, ALONG WITH THE FOUNDATIONAL ASPECTS OF HEALTH REQUIRED IN CHILDHOOD AND ADOLESCENCES THAT ALLOW FOR HEALTH AND WELL-BEING LATER IN LIFE. AFTER VETTING THE PRIORITIES WITH EXECUTIVE LEADERSHIP AND OTHER LEADERS ACROSS THE SYSTEM, CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN HAS ADOPTED INFANT HEALTH, MENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, SAFETY AND VIOLENCE PREVENTION, AND CHRONIC DISEASE PREVENTION AS OUR PRIORITIES FOR THE 2025-27 CYCLE FOR BOTH MILWAUKEE COUNTY AND THE NORTH EAST WI AREAS. |
| PART VI, LINE 3: | AS INDICATED ABOVE, CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL WORKS CLOSELY WITH PATIENTS' FAMILIES TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND AND ENROLL IN MEDICAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE THROUGH THE STATE OF WISCONSIN, AND WHERE APPROPRIATE, FEDERAL PROGRAMS. WHEN SUCH PROGRAMS ARE NOT AVAILABLE, HOWEVER, PATIENTS MAY BE ELIGIBLE FOR FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE UNDER CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S ESTABLISHED POLICIES AND PROCEDURES. THE AVAILABILITY OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE IS PUBLICIZED THROUGH VARIOUS MEASURES, INCLUDING INFORMATION ON CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S WEBSITE, MYCHART AND WRITTEN BROCHURES OR OTHER MATERIALS PROVIDED TO PATIENTS' FAMILIES. A PLAIN LANGUAGE SUMMARY IS AVAILABLE IN WAITING AREAS AND PROVIDED TO ANY PATIENT WITH A SCHEDULED ADMISSION. THE MOST SIGNIFICANT EDUCATION, HOWEVER, OCCURS IN DIRECT DIALOGUE BETWEEN PATIENT FAMILIES AND CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S TRAINED FINANCIAL SERVICES COUNSELORS AND SOCIAL WORKERS. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL MAKES EFFORTS TO PROVIDE FACE-TO-FACE DIALOGUE, AS WELL AS COMMUNICATION VIA TELEPHONE, E-MAIL AND OTHER MEANS, AS NECESSARY TO ENSURE THAT FAMILIES ARE PROVIDED WITH SUFFICIENT INFORMATION REGARDING ALTERNATIVES FOR OBTAINING FREE OR DISCOUNTED CARE, AS WELL AS THE BILLING AND COLLECTION PROCESS GENERALLY. THE COMMUNICATION PROCESS IS SUPPORTED BY INTERPRETER SERVICES AS NEEDED. |
| PART VI, LINE 4: | CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN PROVIDES CARE TO CHILDREN FROM URBAN, RURAL AND SUBURBAN AREAS, REGARDLESS OF RACE, GENDER, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, ETHNICITY, INCOME, DISABILITY OR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN. CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN PROVIDES ACUTE LEVEL SERVICES, AS WELL AS EMERGENCY AND SPECIALTY CARE PRIMARILY TO CHILDREN FROM SOUTHEAST AND NORTHEAST WISCONSIN, BUT TREATS PATIENTS FROM THE ENTIRE STATE OF WISCONSIN AND THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. APPROXIMATELY HALF OF CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL'S PATIENTS ARE MEDICAID BENEFICIARIES, AND IN 2024 APPROXIMATELY HALF OF GROSS CHARGES WERE FROM PATIENTS ENROLLED IN MEDICAID. |
| PART VI, LINE 5: | CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN PROMOTES THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF CHILDREN LOCATED THROUGHOUT ITS SERVICE AREA. CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL OPERATES AN EMERGENCY ROOM OPEN TO ALL PERSONS, REGARDLESS OF THE ABILITY TO PAY. CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN'S BOARD OF DIRECTORS CONSISTS OF INDIVIDUALS REPRESENTING THE COMMUNITY.

FOR CHRONIC ILLNESSES SUCH AS ASTHMA, DIABETES, SEIZURES OR SICKLE CELL ANEMIA, THE SCHOOL NURSES WORK WITH PARENTS AND FAMILIES TO CREATE CARE PLANS HELPING GUIDE THE STUDENTS TO SELF-MANAGEMENT BY THE TIME THEY REACH HIGH SCHOOL, WITH A GOAL OF DECREASED URGENT CARE AND EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT VISITS AND INCREASED UTILIZATION OF PRIMARY CARE PROVIDERS. ADDITIONALLY, THE NURSES HELP FAMILIES' ACCESS COMMUNITY RESOURCES AND COORDINATE CARE WITH SOCIAL WORKERS AND SPECIALTY SERVICE PROVIDERS, INCLUDING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH, FOR FAMILIES WITH IDENTIFIED NEEDS.

ADDITIONALLY, CHILDREN'S PARTICIPATED IN THE WISCONSIN HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION ADVOCACY DAY AND CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION FAMILY ADVOCACY WHICH FEATURED A CHILDREN'S PATIENT FAMILY WHO ADVOCATED ON THE IMPORTANCE OF MEDICAID AND KIDS' ACCESS TO SPECIALTY CARE. THESE EVENTS OFFER OUR PATIENT FAMILIES, PROVIDERS, CLINICIANS, STAFF, BOARD MEMBERS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS WITH OPPORTUNITIES TO STAY INFORMED AND ENGAGE IN IMPORTANT CHILD HEALTH POLICY CONVERSATIONS. IN ADDITION TO ADVOCACY, THE CHILDREN'S COMMUNITY SERVICES DIVISION HAS INITIATED A COMMUNITY-BASED EFFORT TO IMPROVE CHILD HEALTH THAT ACKNOWLEDGES THE INFLUENCE OF SOCIAL, CULTURAL AND ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS ON HEALTH AND RECOGNIZES THAT SUCH INFLUENCES MAY HAVE PARTICULARLY HARMFUL EFFECTS WHEN THEY OCCUR DURING CRITICAL PERIODS OVER ONE'S LIFE COURSE. CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN IS BRINGING THE FULL SPECTRUM OF THE SYSTEM'S RESOURCES TO BEAR IN THE COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT EFFORT. BY CONNECTING OUR VAST CLINICAL AND COMMUNITY-BASED RESOURCES, SCHOOL NURSES, COMMUNITY PEDIATRICIANS, SOCIAL WORKERS, HEALTH EDUCATORS, FOSTER CARE PARENTS, HOSPITALISTS, EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT STAFF, RESEARCHERS AND POLICY MAKERS - CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL IS FACILITATING COMMUNITY HEALTH IMPROVEMENT BOTH DIRECTLY (E.G., EXPANDING MENTAL HEALTH AND DENTAL CARE IN UNDERSERVED AREAS), AND INDIRECTLY (E.G., BRINGING LAW ENFORCEMENT TO THE COMMUNITY CONVERSATION RELATED TO CRIME REDUCTION; SUPPORTING POLICY CHANGES AT THE LOCAL, STATE AND NATIONAL LEVELS THAT HAVE AN IMPACT ON CHILD HEALTH). CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN HAS SELECTED FIVE NEIGHBORHOODS FOR ENGAGEMENT EFFORTS. THESE NEIGHBORHOODS WERE IDENTIFIED BECAUSE THEY HAD A HIGH CONCENTRATION OF PEDIATRIC-AGED RESIDENTS; THERE WERE SIGNIFICANT, BUT MODIFIABLE, CHALLENGES TO CHILD HEALTH OUTCOMES; AND THEY HAD EXISTING TRUSTED COMMUNITY RESOURCES THAT WERE WILLING TO PARTNER WITH CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN TO ENGAGE THE COMMUNITY IN NEW WAYS TO IMPROVE CHILD HEALTH OUTCOMES. AS A PARTNER AND FACILITATOR, CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN'S STAFF HAS ENCOURAGED LEADERS FROM THE PRIORITY NEIGHBORHOODS TO IDENTIFY KEY AREAS FOR STRATEGIC INTERVENTION. ONE STRATEGY THAT HAS BEEN IMPLEMENTED IS USING COMMUNITY NAVIGATORS TRUSTED LOCAL RESIDENTS WHO EDUCATE NEIGHBORS ABOUT A SPECIFIC BEHAVIOR CHANGE OR RESOURCE UTILIZATION THAT WILL RESULT IN IMPROVED HEALTH OUTCOMES. CHHS'S FOCUS IS TO HAVE RELEVANT, ACCURATE, RESIDENT-LEVEL INFORMATION REGARDING TRUSTED SOURCES OF INFORMATION AND DIRECT INFLUENCES ON RESIDENT'S BEHAVIORS. CHILDREN'S WISCONSIN AND THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MILWAUKEE HELEN BADER SCHOOL OF SOCIAL WELFARE HAVE ESTABLISHED THE INSTITUTE FOR CHILD AND FAMILY WELL-BEING, AN ACADEMIC-COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP TO IMPROVE THE LIVES OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES FACING COMPLEX CHALLENGES SUCH AS VIOLENCE, INCARCERATION OR EXTREME POVERTY. THE INSTITUTE COMPRISES THREE CORE SERVICE AREAS: DESIGNING AND IMPLEMENTING EFFECTIVE PROGRAMS, CONDUCTING CUTTING-EDGE RESEARCH AND EVALUATION, AND PROMOTING CHANGE THROUGH POLICY AND ADVOCACY. THIS WORK IS CRITICAL BECAUSE NEARLY ONE THIRD OF CHILDREN IN MILWAUKEE (30.5 PERCENT) HAVE HAD AT LEAST TWO ADVERSE CHILDHOOD EXPERIENCES SUCH AS MALTREATMENT, NEGLECT, VIOLENCE OR EXTREME POVERTY WHICH IS SIGNIFICANTLY HIGHER THAN THE NATIONAL AVERAGE OF 22.6 PERCENT (DATA RESOURCE CENTER FOR CHILD & ADOLESCENT HEALTH). RESEARCH HAS PROVEN THAT CHILDHOOD ADVERSITY ACTUALLY INTERRUPTS CHILDREN'S BRAIN DEVELOPMENT, CAUSING INCREASED LIKELIHOOD OF MENTAL HEALTH PROBLEMS, SUBSTANCE ABUSE, JUVENILE DELINQUENCY AND TEEN PREGNANCY, IN ADDITION TO POOR LONG-TERM HEALTH OUTCOMES AND DECREASED ACADEMIC ACHIEVEMENT, WHICH CAN LEAD TO LONG-TERM EMPLOYABILITY ISSUES.THESE AFFILIATED PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES SEEK TO ENSURE THAT CHILDREN HAVE ACCESS TO HIGH-QUALITY HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES. |
