The Children’s Learning Institute at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth Houston) is dedicated to advancing learning and health outcomes for all children through research-practice partnerships. Our ongoing research efforts, development of new and innovative educational programs and initiatives, and clinical practices and programs continue to focus on the same reason for our founding decades ago: to apply cutting-edge research in child development and education to improve children’s learning.

CLI’s initiatives and programs deliver services and resources to schools, early childhood professionals, and families to enhance children’s learning experiences at school and home, often at no cost to participants.
