The American Academy of Pediatrics developed and piloted the Chapter Quality Network (CQN) to provide chapters with the direct support necessary to lead a QI effort. The CQN works at the practice, state and national levels to build a network of AAP chapters, enhancing their ability to lead quality improvement collaboratives to achieve measurable improvements in the health outcomes of children with asthma. Practices aim to achieve measurable improvements in asthma outcomes by implementing the NHLBI guidelines and making CQN key practice changes. The CQN is also piloting a home visiting intervention.

Much of the day-to-day responsibility for managing asthma falls on the child and their parents. However, because of the time spent in school, school staff can become a partner in the management of the disease. Their active participation through Peak Performance USA, with the help of the respiratory care practitioner, in a partnership with the physician, child and parents can help the child participate fully in school activities.
