I receive the MCH Alert from the National Center for Education in Maternal
and Child Health. In the latest issue, Early Child Development in Social
Context: A Chartbook is highlighted. This publication reviews more than 30
indicators of development and health for infants and children from birth through
age 6, as well as factors in families and communities that
affect children's development and health. The project was commissioned by
the Commonwealth Fund and undertaken by Child Trends in partnership with the
American Academy of Pediatrics' Center for Child Health Research.
Topics include socioemotional development, intellectual development, child
health, family functioning, parental health, health care receipt,
community/neighborhood factors, child care, and demographic factors. Page 38 is devoted
to breastfeeding.
The chartbook is available at:
