Whether you're looking for general information related to child health or for more specific guidance on parenting issues, you've come to the right place. Here, you'll find information regarding the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) many programs and activities, our policies and guidelines, our publications and other child health resources, as well as much, much more. Best of all, you can rest assured that the information comes from the nation's leading child health experts and that we have scientific research supporting our recommendations.​​​

All services offered at CAASTLC start with a Family Intake, Assessment and Referral.  During this process you will sit down one on one with a member of CAASTLC’s staff to discuss the challenges you are going through and what programs and services offered at CAASTLC that may be of assistance to you.  If CAASTLC does not directly provide a service that is determined you need, a referral will be provided to another agency that provides that service.

Most of the programs that CAASTLC provides are targeted for low-income county residents. Income eligibility varies slightly for some programs. Click on eligibility requirements and  documentation required for a complete list.
