Caring for the whole child

September is Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, and CHOP is doing its part to help children in need. With suicide as the second-leading cause of death in children and young adults age 10 to 24, our Youth Suicide Prevention, Intervention and Research Center is trying to turn that grim statistic around.

Genetic testing revealed that Audrey had a rare condition called Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome. With so many different areas of the body potentially affected, a child needs to be seen by multiple specialists, and CHOP is just the place to help. Donor support helps make it possible.
