This year’s Family Advocacy Day theme, Team CHA, captures our shared journey toward improving and strengthening pediatric care. Just as Olympic athletes unite under their national flags, Family Advocacy Day brings together pediatric patients, families, and health care professionals under one banner. From June 12-14th, patients and their loved ones will share their stories with members of Congress in Washington, D.C, underscoring the need to create a better tomorrow for children with medical complexities.
