    Prehospital Pediatric Readiness Project

    The Prehospital Pediatric Readiness Project (PPRP) is the leading joint initiative to improve prehospital care for children across the United States. The PPRP is led by the federal Emergency Medical Services for Children (EMSC) Program with support from more than 30 national organizations, federal partners, and experts. The PPRP empowers EMS and fire-rescue agencies to become "Pediatric Ready," or prepared to provide high-quality care for children in accordance with national recommendations.

    The Prehospital Pediatric Readiness Project (NPRP) is supported by the EMSC Program through the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) as part of awards totaling $2.74M and $3M with 0 percent financed with nongovernmental sources.
