It only takes an inch or two of water to drown

Drain the tub after every use to prevent child drownings.

Every child deserves hope.

Nurture the emotional and behavioral health of your child so they can reach their full potential mentally, physically and socially.

We believe every child deserves a happy and healthy future. That’s why at Cook Children’s Center for Community Health, we’re dedicated to preventing injury and illness, and embracing wellness. Our primary service area consists of Collin, Denton, Grayson, Hood, Johnson, Parker, Tarrant and Wise counties. Knowing every child's life is sacred, we promise to improve the well-being of every child in our care and our communities.

Improving the health of North Texas children

Community benefit

We prioritize the findings from our Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) filled with information from leaders and parents to ensure that our work and support meets the needs of the community while aligning with system initiatives. Strategically, equitable access to care drives our six focus areas: asthma, healthy lifestyles, injury prevention, mental health, oral health, and parenting and family support.

Community programs

Our priority focus areas are addressed through various programs that serve our eight-county service area. Through each program we encourage strong partnership support and engagement by way of our coalitions and collaborations. Our programs involve various levels of strategy and prevention following the Spectrum of Prevention.

Community partnerships

To build upon our collective wisdom, we engage multiple community partners in an effort to research, understand, communicate and address children’s health issues. We value our community partners and we're committed to fostering growth, cultivating positive relationships and providing resources to our North Texas community.
