The Junior Council - an affiliate of Children’s Memorial Hospital (CMH) - is a volunteer organization comprised of young professionals and guided by the belief professed by Children’s: all children need to grow up in a protective and nurturing environment, where each child is given an opportunity to reach his or her potential.

The specific mission of the Junior Council is to support pediatric, adolescent and maternal AIDS and HIV research and care conducted at Children’s Memorial Hospital and the Children’s Memorial Research Center.
