Public Relations

The Cook Children's Public Relations (PR) department handles media relations, interview requests, podcast inquiries, social media, special events and more.

News should be compelling, interesting and sometimes heartwarming. At Cook Children's, the PR department will help media deliver those stories by providing an expert in the field and a patient family as needed. We understand the pressure of deadlines and the importance of meeting them.

We will deliver nationally recognized pediatric experts who are dedicated to helping children overcome mental, emotional and physical challenges. Our talented will arrange the interviews that best fit the media's story. We also have online news, called Checkup Newsroom, which features updated articles, videos, photos and a media library. This content is available for use by news media with credit to Cook Children's.

We look forward to working with you.
