Healthy kids. That’s our goal.
Every child needs a village – a connected community of caring adults to support them, and safe and supportive environments that will give them the healthiest start in life. Together our coalition seeks to abolish inequities in Rochester and the Finger Lakes Region to support the health of our youngest children.

What’s Happening
Infant-Toddler Play Day brings families together in Greece
“Many families were experiencing an Infant-Toddler Play Day for the first time, and they were eager to learn more,” said Healthi Kids Project Coordinator Anna Laurenza, who led the event. “They wanted to know more about how playful, responsive interactions support children’s mental health. Many took home resources so they could continue learning.”
