Resources

Cassie + Friends provides healthcare resources to support providers, care teams, and families navigating pediatric rheumatic disease. These tools are designed to complement clinical care, support patient education, and improve communication between healthcare teams, families, and communities.

By making information more accessible and practical, these resources help support clearer conversations, more coordinated care, and better understanding throughout the care journey.

Support Care
Resources that help guide conversations, education, and care planning.

Improve Understanding
Clear materials that help families better understand conditions, treatments, and next steps.

Strengthen Communication
Tools that help healthcare providers and families share information more effectively.

Clear communication is essential in pediatric care. Clinical resources help bridge the gap between medical information and patient understanding, supporting more effective conversations and shared decision-making.

These tools are designed to be accessible, practical, and adaptable to different care settings.

Healthcare resources can be used in a variety of ways — during clinical appointments, as take-home materials for families, or as part of ongoing education and care planning.

They are designed to be flexible and easily integrated into existing workflows.

Healthcare resources are strengthened through collaboration with healthcare providers, researchers, and the Cassie + Friends community.

By bringing together clinical knowledge and lived experience, these resources can remain relevant, practical, and connected to the needs of children, families, and care teams.
