FAMILY TO FAMILY HEALTH INFORMATION AND EDUCATION CENTER

The overall purpose of Utah’s Family to Family Health Information and Education Center at the Utah Parent Center has been to improve access to quality care and to provide support for children and their families with special health care needs in their communities by empowering families with information and advocacy.

This intensified focus began in 2004, the Center began assisting families to ensure that they can make informed choices about their living environment, service providers, types of supports, and the manner in which supports are provided. This is accomplished by: providing education, information, and training to families. These activities have been conducted through a partnership with Utah Family Voices. We have been collaborating with community, state, and national agencies and systems level organizations that serve children with special health care needs and their families to promote the philosophy of individual and family-directed supports.
