Abstract:
The Transforming Pediatrics for Early Childhood (TPEC) Program is authorized by 42 U.S.C. 701(a)(2) (Title V, § 501(a)(2) of the Social Security Act), which authorizes awards for special projects of regional and national significance in maternal and child health. HRSA's Special Projects of Regional and National Significance program supports HRSA's mission to improve the health and well-being of America's mothers, children, and families. Through the TPEC Program, HRSA directly funds organizations with statewide or tribal reach to place early childhood development experts in local pediatric practices to deliver team-based care to young children and their families. All TPEC funding recipients will collect data and report standardized annual performance measures included in this ICR.
