Children's Hospital Boston provides benefits beyond improving the health and well-being of children and families in our community through its missions of providing high quality clinical care, investing in innovative research, and offering exceptional training for pediatric providers.
As it specifically relates to improving the health of our community, Children's takes a four-pronged approach by:
serving as the community's safety net hospital by caring for all patients in Massachusetts regardless of their ability to pay, as well as providing and subsidizing hospital and community-based services that are either unavailable or limited elsewhere in the community.
speaking out as a voice for children through public policy advocacy to change laws, policies or systems that will lead to improvements in the health of children and families.
supporting essential community partners throughout Boston to improve the lives of children and families.
