Children's Medical and Mental Health Resource Network

Welcome

The Children’s Medical and Mental Health Resource Network uses a collaborative and multidisciplinary approach to support our region’s most vulnerable children. We focus on professional development, community education and research-based interventions to help children who have experienced abuse or are at risk of abuse.  

Our network positively impacts the child protection system in Illinois, helping DCFS keep children who are not abused in their homes, provide in-home services when appropriate and remove children from dangerous environments when necessary, so that fewer children experience serious injury or death.

Our board-certified pediatricians are committed to serving central and southern Illinois and empowering other physicians, clinicians, educators and community stakeholders to advocate for children in need.
