Starting Early: The Long Reach of Childhood Trauma

The Child Health and Development Institute (CHDI) is a not-for-profit organization established to improve the health and well-being of children so they can grow up healthy and thrive. CHDI advances effective, integrated health and behavioral health systems, practices, and policies that result in equitable and optimal health and well-being for children, youth, and families. We work in partnership with providers, policymakers, academic institutions, and state agencies in Connecticut to identify, demonstrate, support, and promote evidence-based treatments and innovations that will result in sustainable change.
