Research Institute

Because pediatric illness and disease are unique from their adult counterparts, it is essential to invest in discovery and innovation. When we understand childhood diseases, we can develop new and more effective treatments. The Research Institute supports Health Excellence in Research & Innovative Outcomes, Fetal & Neonatal Regenerative Medicine, Microbiology, Vaccinology and Pathobiology, Pediatric Hematology and Oncology Research, and Rare Disease.

Greatest Need Children's Fund

The Greatest Need Children’s Fund is a vital resource that helps Connecticut Children’s provide exceptional care and critical support services for kids and families—whenever and wherever they are needed most, regardless of a family’s ability to pay. As a pediatric health system, many of the specialized programs and services children rely on are not reimbursed by insurance, making philanthropic support essential to ensuring every child receives comprehensive, compassionate care.
