Arkansas Children’s

Arkansas Children’s mission is to make children better today and healthier tomorrow.

The only pediatric health system in the state has nearly 5,000 employees.

Arkansas Children’s, of Little Rock, opened its $167 million, 233,000-SF Northwest Children’s in Springdale in 2018, marking the first time that pediatric emergency medical services had been available in northwest Arkansas.

Last year, the health system announced its largest clinical expansion in its 111-year history, a $318 million investment across its Little Rock and Springdale campuses that will add buildings, programs and hundreds of employees.

“This is an extraordinary place to work where we witness miracles every day,” said Marcy Doderer, Arkansas Children’s president and CEO. “We are excited to serve even more children through these new and improved spaces. Our work is not complete until Arkansas is the safest and healthiest place to be a child.”
