Families of children with special health care needs will partner in
decision-making at all levels and will be satisfied with the services they
receive.

comprehensive care within a medical home.
-
All families of children with special health care needs will have adequate
private and public insurance to pay for the services they need.

All children will be screened early and continuously for special health care
needs.
-
Community-based service systems will be organized so families can use them
easily.
-
All youth with special health care needs will receive the services necessary to
make transitions to all aspects of adult life, including adult health care,
work, and independence.
