The Roadmap Project is the ABP's national effort to support the resilience and emotional health of pediatric patients with chronic conditions, their families, and the medical teams who care for them. With funding from the ABP Foundation, the project aims to increase awareness for patients, families, and clinicians.
Why is this important?
Having a chronic condition can cause stress and difficulty coping for pediatric patients and their families. It also might make it harder for them to take good care of themselves, or it could make their symptoms worse. Watch our video to learn more.
Current Roadmap Resources
Roadmap resources to increase awareness, build capacity, and implement strategies are available on the Roadmap's web page. These include a variety of tools that clinicians and educators can use to prevent emotional issues and promote resilience among infants, children, adolescents, and young adults living with chronic illnesses.
