About: | DSCC guides families through their child’s journey with a medical condition and works with doctors, schools and community groups to create a seamless support system. We draw on our the relationships and expertise our staff has built over the last 80-plus years to address a child’s medical, social, behavioral, educational and financial needs and develop a plan of care. This process is called care coordination and is free for all children who have eligible medical conditions, regardless of their family’s income level.
