Our work does not end when immigrant children and families leave the shelters. Meet Brenda and Enedelia, Migrant Clinician Network Health Associates.  Co-located at the Respite Center with the midwives, they connect the pregnant mothers to critical prenatal care in their destination communities.

Along with our faculty at Stanford School of Medicine, Baylor/Texas Children’s Hospital, and the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley School of Medicine, we created a national network of clinics and academic medical centers (Pedi Specialty Care Access Network (SCAN) willing to provide subspecialty medical care to children with serious medical conditions in their destination communities.  Children with serious medical conditions have scheduled appointments with pediatricians or specialists in these facilities. This could not happen without the Champion Pediatricians across the country.
