Wyoming Family to Family Health Information Center
The WY Family to Family Health Information Center in Wyoming is a statewide, family-led initiative that provides information, education, training, outreach and peer support to families of children and youth with special health care needs and the professionals who serve them. WIND partners with the Wyoming Department of Health’s Maternal and Family Health Section and Office of Multicultural Health, UPLIFT-Wyoming’s Federation of Families, UW faculty members, families and Wyoming health professionals to develop and provide health care information. The centers are staffed by trained family leaders who have children with special health care needs and expertise in navigating federal, state and local public and private health care systems.
Medical Home
WIND recommends the Medical Home Portal for families and professionals who would like to learn more about children with special health care needs. The Medical Home Portal aims to provide ready access to reliable and useful information for professionals and families to help them care and advocate for children with special health care needs (CSHCN), as partners in the Medical Home model. The long-range goal is to improve outcomes for CSHCN and their families by enhancing the availability and quality of healthcare, related services, and coordination of care.
