Reminder: KDHE, KU offer engagement opportunities for improving health services for women and children

Researchers at the Center for Public Partnerships and Research at the University of Kansas (KU-CPPR) are teaming up with the Kansas Department of Health and Environment’s Maternal and Child Health Program to learn more about beliefs about systems of care for women, infants, children and adolescents across the state.  

Providers, families and community members are invited to share their experiences with health services for women and children during several community engagement open houses across Kansas. These events are designed to get ideas for improving programs for maternal and child health in their community.  

These free, come-and-go open houses will be in the following locations: 

  • May 31: 10 a.m.-12 p.m., Wichita Public Library, Advanced Learning Library, Children’s Gallery 
  • June 27: 11 a.m.-1 p.m., Kansas City Kansas Public Library, 2nd Floor Auditorium 
  • June 28: 1-3 p.m., Pittsburg Public Library, Large Meeting Room
