Exploring Early Childhood Care and Education Levers to Improve Population Health : Proceedings of a Workshop

On September 14, 2017, the Roundtable on Population Health Improvement of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a workshop to explore the intersection of health and early childhood care and education, two key social determinants of health. This workshop follows a 2014 roundtable workshop that considered the interface between the education and health sectors broadly, from research and metrics to cross-sectoral partnerships and financing. The 2017 workshop continued that discussion, with a deeper focus on early childhood (birth through age 5) as a critical period in human development and an important opportunity for educational and related interventions. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the 2017 workshop.Author: Health and Medicine Division,author,Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice,author,Wiz Contributors: Health and Medicine Division,author,Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice,author,Wizemann, Theresa M.,compiler,Roundtable on Population Health Improvement,author,National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine,author Binding: paperback Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Edition: 1 Published/Release Date: 15 Feb 2019 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: National Academies Press Author/Director/Artist: Engineering and Medicine National Academies of Sciences Dimension (cm): 229x152x-1 mm Package Dimension (cm): 11x228x153 mm Item Weight (g): 204 Package Weight (g): 210
