Book Description
Children are the foundation of the United States, and supporting them is a key component of building a successful future. However, millions of children face health inequities that compromise their development, well-being, and long-term outcomes, despite substantial scientific evidence about how those adversities contribute to poor health. Advancements in neurobiological and socio-behavioral science show that critical biological systems develop in the prenatal through early childhood periods, and neurobiological development is extremely responsive to environmental influences during these stages. Consequently, social, economic, cultural, and environmental factors significantly affect a child's health ecosystem and ability to thrive throughout adulthood. Vibrant and Healthy Kids: Aligning Science, Practice, and Policy to Advance Health Equity builds upon and updates research from Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity (2017) and From Neurons to Neighborhoods: The Science of Early Childhood Development (2000). This report provides a brief overview of stressors that affect childhood development and health, a framework for applying current brain and development science to the real world, a roadmap for implementing tailored interventions, and recommendations about improving systems to better align with our understanding of the significant impact of health equity.

Book Description
Education is key to helping people make informed, healthy choices. Children must be healthy in order to learn. Each year approximately 2.5 million children and adolescents are victims of physical, sexual, or emotional abuse or neglect. A similar number of teens become infected with sexually transmitted diseases. To combat these and other health-related problems, school health programs are becoming more comprehensive. Good programs have direct instruction, health services or referrals, and a healthy school environment. Ideally, health programs start in kindergarten and continue through grade 12, include teacher training, have research and evaluation components, and are coordinated by a professional health educator. Developing a comprehensive program consists of 12 steps: (1) making student and staff health a priority; (2) making a policy commitment; (3) forming an advisory committee; (4) assessing health attitudes, behaviors, values, and needs; (5) setting goals and evaluation criteria; (6) deciding on curricula; (7) appointing a coordinator; (8) investing in a staff wellness program; (9) providing staff development; (10) generating long-term funding and commitment; (11) fostering community involvement; and (12) ensuring evaluation and accountability. Appendix A provides a self-evaluation form for school districts' health education activities. Appendix B lists agencies that offer assistance in health promotion. Appendix C lists the school-related objectives of the Public Health Service. (EJS)
