Better Serving Children with Special Needs

Posted on June 10, 2003

The Association of Child and Maternal Health Programs (AMCHP) represents state public health leaders who have close-up knowledge of what policies can make a difference for children with special health and developmental needs and their families. AMCHP members are urging Congress to ensure that each of the 18 million children with special needs has access to a "medical home" which provides continuity of care and to increase funding to adequately serve such children.
