Summary
The Transforming Pediatrics for Early Childhood Program (TPEC) will advance the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services’ Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) priorities by preventing chronic disease early in life and promoting healthy development in early childhood. TPEC recipients - organizations with statewide[1] or tribal reach - will place early childhood development (ECD) experts in local pediatric practices to deliver team-based care to young children and their families. Recipients will improve the quality and cost-effectiveness of pediatric care by delivering a comprehensive, team-based approach that focuses on factors critical to child development. Through this approach, pediatric primary care staff are expected to:

  • Screen children and their families for their needs related to mental health, housing, nutrition, and child development.
  • Build safe, stable, and nurturing relationships between parents/caregivers and their children.
  • Educate parents/caregivers on developmental milestones and how to watch for them.
  • Make sure that families get referrals and access to additional or specialized support.

TPEC recipients are expected to:

  1. Place ECD experts[2] in pediatric practices[3] that serve a high percentage [4] of families covered by Medicaid/Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) and deliver high- quality ECD services using a team-based approach.
  2. Build the skills of pediatric primary care staff statewide to deliver high-quality ECD services using a team-based approach.
  3. Improve statewide administrative policies and financing strategies to expand and sustain team-based pediatric primary care, improving the standard of care for all young children.

TPEC is expected to result in measurable improvements in service delivery rates and early childhood development outcomes.

    • CIRS gives families an easy single-entry point to assess their health needs andefficiently connect them to services that support healthy children and families.
  2. Implement evidence-based early childhood health and development models inhigh-need communities.
    • Evidence-based early childhood development models improve health and well-being for both parents and their young children and prevent chronic disease. Models are implemented community-wide in pediatric or public health settings,including those in rural areas.
  3. Lead effective state-level early childhood coordination.
    • Effective state-led coordination improves how health care, early learning, family services, and economic support agencies work together to support healthy early childhood development. State-led coordination also expands successful approaches to additional communities in the state, Tribe, or territory.
  4. Achieve sustainability.
    • Align project activities with other local, state and federal funding sources so thatlonger-term funding can sustain the work in the future.

Through these areas of focus, ECCS SEED will show measurable improvements in family health outcomes to ensure children grow up in healthy, safe, and nurturing families and communities.
