INSIGHTS FROM THE FRONTLINES
Hear from organizations driving improvements in outcomes.
How Top-Tier Clinics are Engaging with Parents for Well-Child Care
Jenny Bryce of the Health Federation of Philadelphia and Hayden Coleman of Midtown Community Health Center share the practical outreach, scheduling, and engagement strategies that bring families back again and again, and keep immunizations and development on track.
The Takeaway: Technology can carry the reminders, but relationships keep families in care. Stop thinking of outreach as a reminder, and start thinking of it as building a relationship.
Overcoming Vaccine Hesitancy at the Point of Care
Dr. Ilan Shapiro sat down with CareMessage Co-Founder & Chief Strategy Officer, Cecilia Corral, to talk honestly about vaccine hesitancy at the point of care. His message was hopeful and practical.
The Takeaway: Meet fear with truth, give families the time and respect to decide, and treat every conversation as the start of a relationship rather than a debate to win.
Upstream Innovations in Early Childhood Development
Innovative models like Rx Kids (cash support during infancy), Weitzman Institute’s Prescription for Play, and Our House (housing and early education) prove that pediatric care extends far beyond clinic walls.
The Takeaway: Children's wellness happens long before the exam room. Meeting families upstream where they live isn't extra work, it is the work.
