Resources for Families

The Children’s Hospital Family Health Library

The Family Health Library provides information in the broad areas of parenting, child development and also medical illnesses in children. The Library is located on the first floor of the hospital and is open to families of patients, as well as parents, educators, healthcare professionals and children. Books can be checked out by anyone, and can be returned through most public libraries in Colorado. The Family Health Library is also available online.  This is a great place to do more in-depth research on care, clinical trials and support groups.
