Asthma Support
Our team is passionate about helping children break the cycle of repeated asthma attacks.
Asthma is the #1 reason that kids miss school and the third leading cause of pediatric hospitalizations.
Unfortunately, many children and families don’t have the support they need to properly control their disease. That’s where the Community Asthma Partnership at Wolfson (CAP-W) can help. We offer a range of free educational programs for families, schools and healthcare providers.
Why Wolfson Advocates for Kids
Advocating for children is the most important part of our mission. Through THE PLAYERS Center for Child Health at Wolfson Children’s, we reach beyond the walls of the hospital to promote safe and healthy childhoods for all kids in our region.
