Welcome to the new version of AboutKidsHealth! Regular visitors will notice a number of changes, starting with the new design of the site.
New content
We have added new resource centres on autism spectrum disorder, blood and bone marrow transplant, juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA), and leukemia, as well as an expanded version of our ADHD resource centre.

Updated and improved content
In collaboration with our clinical and research colleagues, we have fully reviewed our existing resource centres to ensure that they continue to be evidence-based and up-to-date. In some cases, they have been expanded or reorganized to make them easier to use. We have reorganized the Health A-Z section so you can find what you are looking for more easily. It is also easier to find your way around our Just for Kids section.

New languages
The most exciting change is the new languages we have available. Nearly every page on AboutKidsHealth has been translated into French and simplified Chinese. Click the language links in the top right-hand corner of your screen to see what this page looks like in another language. Selected pages are also available in Arabic, traditional Chinese, Portuguese, Spanish, Tamil, and Urdu, with Punjabi coming in the near future.

Translation of the site was made possible by a grant from Citizenship and Immigration Canada.
