As the result of the ABCD project, the North Carolina Medicaid agency adopted a policy requiring practices to use a standardized screening tool at scheduled well-child visits. The project developed resources, including an office resource guide, designed to help primary care practices integrate standardized developmental screening into their workflow.

This section contains resources for "Identifying Children and Families at Risk" developed by North Carolina.
