Family Voices of Alabama ...keeping families at the center of children's health care.
As the world continues to respond to the coronavirus, Family Voices is committed to providing information about the virus that we hope will support the unique conditions affecting children and youth with special health care needs, their families, and the larger communities of which they are a part.

Part of our commitment is this regularly updated National Family Voices webpage (familyvoices.org/coronavirus). In addition, Family Voices has developed an email update. Read the latest and sign up at Resource e-Blast.
Also stay in touch with the latest coverage of the crisis through FaceBook/FVNational, Facebook/FamilyVoicesofAlabama, and Twitter/FamilyVoices, where you can share other resources, questions, and comments. You may also contact us directly. Our sincere thanks for all that you do on behalf of families and children.
As you are aware, we at Family Voices of Alabama postponed the planned Partners in Care Summit scheduled for April 30-May 1.
We would love to see all of our families and providers collaborating and learning together, and we will, at a later time. Above all is our desire to abide by the recommendations about groups of people gathering and also to not ask families who have children or youth with special needs to put themselves and their families at risk.
Please continue to follow us on all platforms for continued updates on the Summit and other valuable resources.
Thank you, The staff of Family Voices of Alabama
