  3. Goals By providing funding across Canada, we hope to strengthen Canada's capacity and knowledge to respond to children's health needs. Funding is granted in areas of children's health based on scientific excellence and relevant impact on children's health. A second focus of our funding is to help ensure that families are able to access the most up to date information about their children's health. Community Conference Grants bring together families with researchers and clinicians for medical presentations and family-oriented discussions.
