We’ve developed a touchpoint to provide resources, information, and contacts for pediatric care.

NAHC Pediatric Advisory Council Charter

The Pediatric Advisory Council (PedAC) monitors and evaluates industry trends and emerging issues with regard to home-based pediatric. The PedAC will develop and inform NAHC policy positions on legislative, legal, regulatory and reimbursement matters that affect this unique patient population and their providers who are NAHC members.

Courageous Parents Network

Courageous Parents Network is a non-profit organization and educational platform that orients, empowers and accompanies families and providers caring for children with serious illness. Videos, podcasts, printable guides, Guided Pathways, and blog are available free of charge to those interested including providers of care and services to children with serious illness as well as parents and family and friends of children with serious illness.  NAHC is pleased to make these resources available through the Courageous Parents Network website.
