  Increasing youth and family-focused health projects an exciting new development
 


Due to the creation of our WKYD project, other large youth health organizations have requested proposals from CCMI. The first project is designed to help children ages 6 – 12, who have been diagnosed with a serious disease, better deal with their situation. The materials provide information and multiple activities in a fun and contemporary way.

The second project focuses specifically on the parents of children ages 0 - 6. The public health campaign focuses on three main areas of parenting children: nutrition, safety and discipline. Multimedia tools will disseminate helpful information in creative ways understood by different ethnic groups.

Based on our interest and knowledge of this area, CCMI has contacted over 30 other children’s health organizations to inquire if we can help them. If your organization has a need that fits into this or any other related criteria, visit the Contact Us section of the website.
