Mission and programs · 2023
Mission
Children's Health Fund (CHF) leads a national network to bring comprehensive healthcare to children growing up in under-resourced communities and advocates for the health and well-being of all children. See Schedule O.Our vision is that all children receive the healthcare they deserve and need to thrive and succeed. Through our Healthy & Ready to Learn program, public health initiatives, policy and advocacy work, response to public health crises, and the work of our National Network partners, we provide support and access to comprehensive healthcare services to children living in under-resourced communities throughout the United States.
Activities or mission (Part I)
To provide health care to the nation's most medically underserved children and their families.
-
NATIONAL NETWORK - The national network is unique because it is composed of healthcare providers who work at the community level, building trust and providing resource-intensive care that children in these communities would not otherwise receive.Children's Health Fund sees steady annualized growth each year through expanding our national network of clinical sites, adding innovative programming, and responding to public health crises. In 2023, our national network partners served 112,970 children and family members in 533,009 clinical and health education encounters.See Schedule OExpanded Access to Care - In 2023, CHF produced or updated health education materials on subjects critical to the well-being of children, such as managing asthma and supporting children's social-emotional learning. A series of virtual discussions with guests including experts from the frontlines helped CHF address issues that children across our country face daily. To supplement our internal capacity to contribute to evidence-based practices, CHF created the research accelerator cohort, which leverages the participants' expertise to develop large-scale, mission-critical, cross-site research proposals. This cohort brings innovative researchers together to accelerate opportunities to pursue a shared research agenda. In 2023, Children's Health Fund Research Accelerator Cohort created a manuscript outlining lessons learned in the attempt to conduct cross-site research to identify mental health needs during the COVID-19 pandemic through resource-limited pediatric clinics. The manuscript will be submitted for publication. CHF continues to monitor and respond to health reform implementation and advocate for health equity and social safety net programs and funding.

HEALTHY AND READY TO LEARN - In 2014, the Children's Health Fund launched Healthy and Ready to Learn to address health issues that impact learning in New York City. The programming addresses needs rooted in social, racial, and economic inequities by empowering school staff and families to identify student health challenges and create trauma-sensitive environments. In 2023, HRL programming continued to address the lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including widespread behavioral health challenges and community disconnection, with a focus on parent workshops delivered in school settings. See Schedule OThe program also continued expanding into the early childhood care and education space by developing and delivering content specific to caregivers of children ages 0-5. The online resource and training center offered professional development workshops, sessions for caregivers, infographics, interactive learning tools, social media outreach, monthly newsletters, and additional resources.

PUBLIC HEALTH INITIATIVES: CHF's Public Health Initiatives seek to improve and protect population and community health. We engage local communities and promote patient empowerment to improve health outcomes in under-resourced communities. PHI draws upon data and insights from our national network partner programs to develop interventions focused on prevention, social drivers of health, health equity, and health education. These interventions inform our advocacy work, and we disseminate lessons learned broadly through our Innovation Lab, online briefings, and conferences. See Schedule OIn 2023, CHF's Public Health Initiatives department implemented three Community Health Equity and Engagement Roundtables (CHEERs) in underserved communities nationwide. The CHEERs gather local stakeholders from various sectors to identify localized social drivers of health and collaboratively strategize initiatives to address these challenges. The roundtables position patients, families, and youth as key stakeholders among healthcare professionals, policymakers, and social service organizations to drive community-based change.Children's Health Fund implemented two key vaccine initiatives in 2023 to advance vaccine access and confidence. These efforts included a partnership with the Association of American Medical Colleges to increase vaccine confidence in our national network partner communities of Phoenix, Arizona; Miami, Florida; and Dallas, Texas. We also continued our Vax, Snacks, Rx initiative, which enabled three urban national network partner programs to continue mobilizing pediatric vaccines and COVID-19 tests through innovative outreach methods.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Other IRS files
Auto-Revocation List
Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.
Publication 78
Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.
These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
