Perinatal services at DCHC include risk assessment, educational programs, enrollment and administration of the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) nutritional program, and postpartum care.

Pediatric Care
Comprehensive services include early periodic screening, diagnosis and treatment, well-child visits, anemia screening, WIC enrollment, and hypertension treatment. Enhancing personal growth and development is effectively addressed through DCHC's pediatric program. DCHC is also dedicated to increasing the number of children immunized in Detroit. In keeping with this commitment, DCHC provides free childhood immunizations.
