Now that Louisiana has its own Family Voices Chapter and office, our Coordinators can more easily<br />

address the biggest issues confronting the state's children with special health care needs and their<br />

families: Obtaining health related services in the schools; dealing with decisions regarding medical<br />

necessity; addressing problems with care coordination and welfare reform laws; and improving mental<br />

health services. Helping Family Voices address these challenges are partners at the state Title<br />

V/CSHCN agency, the Children's Hospital, Agenda for Children, MCH, the UAP, and the Academy of<br />

Pediatrics. In the past year, more than 8,000 families in Louisiana received health information, 50<br />

parents were mentored, and 40 parents received one-on-one support. Family Voices, along with<br />

CSHCN and the AAP, has taken a leadership role in building partnerships to support a Medical Home<br />

for children with special health care needs.<br />
