Improving the emotional health of children, adolescents, and young adults with chronic conditions and their families.

Patients with chronic conditions and their families cite emotional health needs as one of their top concerns. You don't have to be a mental health professional to make a difference.

How are you doing?

Addressing the emotional health needs of patients and families with chronic conditions is important, evidence-based, and feasible. In collaboration with the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) and Cincinnati Children's Anderson Center, The Roadmap Project provides health professionals, patients, and families the tools and resources to ensure that addressing emotional health is a routine part of excellent and equitable care.

 

Join us in raising awareness, building capability, and implementing strategies to address patient and family emotional health. The tools and resources on this site will help you as a patient, parent, or clinician foster the emotional health of children with chronic conditions and their families.

Find the right tools and resources for you

Change Package

This Change Package provides practical tools to support emotional and mental health care. The strategies described in the Roadmap Change Package should be seen as a ‘toolkit’ for clinical teams working to improve care for patients and families living with chronic pediatric conditions. We expect that this will be a living document, expanding and improving as new resources and strategies are added, so stay tuned for updates as they arise.
