Our Mission

Lurie Children's is dedicated to the health and well-being of all children. As the pediatric teaching facility of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, this commitment drives us to be a leader in:

• Pediatric healthcare delivery
• Research into the prevention, causes and treatment of diseases that affect children
• Education for physicians, nurses and allied health professionals
• Advocacy for the general well-being of all children

Lurie Children's is guided by the belief that all children should grow up in a protective and nurturing environment, where each child is given the opportunity to reach his or her potential.
