Family Support Services for Pediatric Craniofacial Patients and Their Families
Having a child diagnosed with a craniofacial disorder can be an overwhelming, life-changing event for the entire family. At Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, we care about the whole child and family.
Our dedication to family-centered care means parents become partners in their child’s healing. We have a number of patient and family support programs that support the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual needs of our patients and their families.
