The groundbreaking Partnerships for Early Childhood Development brings 11 New York City hospitals and their community partners together in a year-long effort to help pediatric primary care practices initiate, expand, or improve on efforts to screen children ages 0-5 for social and environmental risks that interfere with healthy development, and connect them with the services that can address those risks. A welcome webinar and the first in-person meeting of the project's learning collaborative began the process.
