The Roadmap Project started in 2017 as a simple request from three parents of children with chronic conditions to the American Board of Pediatrics: Create for us a roadmap to improve the emotional health of our children. 

Since that time, The Roadmap Project has become a national effort that seeks to do this by: 

• Raising awareness among patients, families, and clinical teams to validate, assess, and address emotional stress during routine care;
• Building confidence and capability among clinical teams to assess and address emotional health needs; 
• Helping patients and families feel safe sharing emotional health concerns; and 
• Providing resources, connections, and strategies to patients, families, and clinical teams.

In this encore presentation of the Well Beyond Medicine podcast, we hear from the team implementing the Roadmap Project and get an update on its current status.
