Seventy years ago, our founding mothers had a dream to care for children in a hospital as special as its patients. Valley Children's has flourished ever since, caring for hundreds of thousands of children. Our mission guides us as we travel the road to our future alongside staff, physicians, children, families, our community and our partners throughout the region.
