Message from the Children’s Board of Hillsborough County
To combat the problem of substance-exposed children born each year in Hillsborough County and reduce the number of children exposed to alcohol and drugs, which ultimately cost our community millions of dollars and untold human suffering, the Children’s Board has helped fund the Zero Exposure Partnership.

This initiative allows CBHC to realize the vision of our Healthy Birth Outcome strategy for pregnant women and their infants through age one by providing resources and support to ensure access to prenatal health care, full-term births with an absence of birth defects, a safe environment and health care for mom and her infant.
