About

The Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital Intensive Feeding Program relies on a collaborative treatment approach to help children and their families overcome significant feeding challenges. Using a systematic and evidence-based behavioral approach, our multidisciplinary team works with families to improve their children’s eating outcomes. Our program’s goal is to help children achieve developmentally-appropriate feeding and drinking patterns during treatment and to educate parents and caregivers on how best to sustain gains and continue progress at home.
