Community-Based Care

Watch Me Grow / First 5 San Mateo  

INTERAGENCY COLLABORATIVE: We meet with more than 15 agencies and services from San Mateo County to coordinate care for children with complex medical and psycho-social issues. Parents' consent for the discussion. Professionals share their opinions, and the resulting plan is designed to overcome barriers to the child’s development and/or family’s wellbeing. This program is funded by First 5 San Mateo County.
