It takes more than medicine to heal a sick child...

Since 2007, Kids’ Health Links Foundation has created social technology, in collaboration with our partners, to help chronically ill and hospitalized youth cope with their stress, isolation and loneliness while in medical care. We have also developed technology platforms for child life specialists and child and youth mental health professionals, enabling them to connect, learn and share best practices, and access tools and resources to help them provide better care to the children, youth and families they serve.

Kids’ Health Links Foundation is proudly affiliated with

Kids’ Health Links Foundation is a member and proud supporter of the Association of Child Life Professionals, which is comprised of 5,000 individuals representing over 600 organizations worldwide. We are also affiliated with the MSc Child Life & Pediatric Psychosocial Care program at McMaster University to provide clinical internship experience. Child Life interns will gain skills and competencies under the supervision of KHLF’s Certified Child Life Specialists as they work towards entry level practice to join the Child Life profession.
