Mission & Focus Areas
The filing does not state a mission in the provided information. The hospital’s website says its research, conducted through Stanley Manne Children’s Research Institute, aims to generate knowledge and translate advances in preventing, diagnosing, and treating diseases affecting children. Research is organized into basic and preclinical science; clinical and community trials; community, population health, and outcomes; and quantitative science.
The hospital also describes community health as part of its work, with initiatives led by the Patrick M. Magoon Institute for Healthy Communities. The institute collaborates with community organizations and addresses root causes of health disparities, while supporting community-engaged outreach and research.
Among the organizations receiving grants in 2025, Lurie Children’s Medical Group Inc. describes its own mission as promoting children’s health through clinical and basic research, coordinated care, physician education, and evidence-based child advocacy. Lurie Children’s Surgical Foundation Inc. says its mission is to provide pediatric and subspecialty surgical, research, and educational services.
