## About Us

“CHADIS is the best example of what the future of pediatrics should look like.”  
Dr. Neal Halfon, Professor, UCLA, invited address: “The Future of General Pediatrics” at National Pediatric Academic Societies, May, 2006

## Research & Development

Research and development is generally conducted under the leadership of our non-profit parent company, the Center for Promotion of Child Development through Primary Care, but Total Child Health has been the recipient of several SBIR awards through NIH. Current projects of the Center and TCH are briefly summarized below. Contact [Dr. Raymond Sturner](mailto:rsturner@childhealthcare.org) for more information about these projects or proposals to use CHADIS for collaborative research.
