Our Mission, Vision and Core Outcomes
Mission:
To ensure a comprehensive, coordinated, culturally effective, and consumer-friendly system of care that meets the needs of Maryland's Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs (CYSHCN) and their families.
Vision:
To become a nationally recognized leader in developing the unique potential of each Maryland child and young person served through its comprehensive, fully integrated and consumer-friendly system of care.
Core Outcomes:The federal Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB), together with its partners, has identified six core outcomes as critical indicators of success in implementing community-based systems of services mandated for all children with special health care needs.
Office for Genetics and People with Special Health Care Needs (OGPSHCN) prepared briefs about each of the MCHB Core Outcomes for Maryland CYSHCN using the latest
National Survey of Children with Special Health Care Needs (2009-10) data. These briefs provide a quick overview and pertinent data for each core outcome:
