Project
Zero to Three informs, trains, and supports professionals, policymakers, and parents in their efforts to improve the health and development of babies and toddlers.
HealthySteps is an evidence-based, interdisciplinary pediatric primary care program that promotes the health, well-being, and school readiness of babies and toddlers, with an emphasis on families living in low-income communities. A two-year grant (2026–2027) supports HealthySteps in implementing its Epic Turbocharger Package at large healthcare sites in New York, Maryland, and California, enabling the collection of high-quality data to identify health disparities, tailor early interventions, and inform expansion across the HealthySteps network.
Another two-year grant (2026–2027) to support the State Strategies for Financing Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health and Diagnosis program. The project will provide technical assistance to 45 state leadership teams as they develop and implement financing policy plans. The program emphasizes a continuum of developmentally appropriate mental health support and services to strengthen systems of care for babies, young children, and their caregivers.
