Message from the Director... "Here at Golisano Children’s Hospital at Strong we are committed to supporting the needs of the children and families. Our goal is to minimize the negative impact of healthcare experiences while maintaining individual growth, development, and family relations. Children teach us so much about living and coping. We are their guides, but they are their own leaders when it comes to facing the challenges they face in life. It is an honor and a privilege to support the needs of children and families." -Wendy Lane, MS, CCLS
